I’d probably have to go with Audiobookshelf and Kavita. Behind those would be Invidous and Immich.
Jellyfin: An unfederated alternative to Plex, with some pros and cons. Very lightweight, customizable with plugins. Decent iOS and tvOS client from the devs.
Vaultwarden: Unofficial open-source fork of Bitwarden.
FreshRSS: Self hosted RSS + Atom reader, honestly the best way to read news ad free. I recommend using FreshRSS with lire if you’re on iOS.
I’m definitely looking into hosting PiHole down the line, and hopefully nextcloud once i get some more drives
There are multiple ways to evaluate usage. I’ll go with what I would guess is your desired measurement, things that I use intentionally (as opposed to things like dns, which just happen incidentally to other things or automation based things which are continuously running but not necessarily interacted with):
- Mastodon
- An app I’ve written to collect personal data
- Jellyfin
- Lemmy
- Bitwarden (I pay to self-host as opposed to vaultwarden as the latter probably won’t have a security audit)
- Freshrss
- Linkding
- Gitea
- Archivebox
- Mailcow
pihole, wireguard, qbittorrent, sonarr/radarr, Jellyfin, syncthing, NFS.
I’ve considered Airsonic but I haven’t found a good client that looks good and doesn’t behave weirdly. I had one launch about 500 threads trying to transcode the same song which ate up my CPU time on my server resulting in a stern e-mailing from my host.
- DNS server, because everything depends on it
- The Lounge - got like 7 people using it basically daily to chat
- Lemmy, even though I’m the only one really actively using it.
- E-Mail server, I don’t get a whole lot of mail but it’s a pretty important one!
Everything else tends to be a lot more idle, but I’ve also got NextCloud, an IRC server, soon a Matrix server, an internal VPN so all my devices can always talk to eachother no matter where they are.
You’re self-hosting your email? Masochist.
