What webapps do you selfhost that aren't media/game servers?

Submitted ⁨⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩ by ⁨3dmvr@lemm.ee⁩ to ⁨selfhosted@lemmy.world⁩

Since selfhosted clouds seem to be the most common thing ppl host, i’m wondering what else ppl here are selfhosting. Is anyone making use of something like excalidraw in the workplace? Curious about what apps that would be useful to always access over the web that aren’t mediaservers.

I like to seed legal torrents for archival purposes. And run a comic server for syncing with my kobo ereader

Gitlab (version control)

Bookstack (wiki)

Joplin (not a webapp, but sync server)

Semaphore (does all of my infra updating via Ansible)

Uptime-Kuma (monitoring/alerting)

Been thinking about adding NextCloud mostly for the Google Docs/MS Office replacement at some point.

But honestly most of my stuff is just for me, my family prefers to to use whatever commercial thing is out there. So I tend to limit things to infrastructure type things that are of personal interest to me alone.

I randomly think about something I want, and then usually find it here. Used to be a GitHub repo, but it got so popular and useful they got a nice site with search and all, now.

awesome-selfhosted.net

I don’t have as much running anymore outside media/games, but I do still run Stirling PDF as an Acrobat Pro alternative.

Immich backs up photos from my phone and camera with tagging and search

Archivebox is like a personal internet archive, I use it to save youtube videos and important memes

Homeassistant does home automation stuff, currently I only use it to turn the speakers on/off with the tv

Forgejo is a git host like Github, and can regularly pull external repositories to keep a personal mirror

Actual budget is a budgeting app, nice for tracking expenses across multiple accounts

  You made me actually check out Immich and I love the tagging feature. That makes it feel much more like a photo library and less like just a giant file storage solution that happens to store photos.

  Homeassistant is like shortcuts? You can have it do stuff if something else does something?
  
  source
  - Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago
    Home assistant is lights, switches, sensors, blinds, fans, heat/cooling, and more. I have an automation that tells me 5 minutes after the wash is done so I can move laundry into the dryer, and another one that tells me if anyone left the back door open, telling me to close it. (My dog can open it from outside).

    You can use the Linuxserver.io VSCodium Image and replace VSCodium with Emacs in the Dockerfile.

Calendar and contacts (i.e. CalDAV/CardDAV). A blog. Media is just remote-mounted since all my systems are Linux.

I’m always leery of “one app for all” solutions, or in German, “eierlegende Wollmilchsau”.

Hence, no Nextcloud for me.

  Currently working to move away from Nextcloud myself, it’s PHP nature causes IO storms when it tries to check if it needs to reload any code for incoming requests.
  
  source
  - koala@programming.dev ⁨8⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago
    Eh, my Nextcloud LXC container idles at less than 4.5% CPU usage (“max over the week” from Proxmox). I use PostgreSQL as the backend on a separate LXC container that has some peaks of 9% CPU usage, but is normally at 5% too.
    
    I only have two users, though. But both containers have barely IO activity.

KitchenOwl is my latest addition and I am getting a lot of use out of it - s/o and I use it to share a grocery shopping list, slowly starting to add my recipes to it as well. I used to use a shared google keep list but KitchenOwl works a lot better.

  Was trying this, but I’ve had issues with the app not properly synchronizing with the server. Does that work for you and if so, what’s your setup?
  
  Was supposed to replace “Bring” and due to the issues, currently using grocy, where sync works, but is otherwise very tedious to manage inventory.

    Dang sorry to hear that - I just followed the docker compose instructions and setup Caddy (which was also new to me) on my VPS and I was off the races, no issues yet.

Mealie for recipes

  Mealie is so underrated. They have meal planning, recipes, recipe parsing from the internet, grocery lists based on recipes and meal plans, like 4 different ways to organize recipes, and OIDC/SSO on top of it all!

  Why dont they sell routers that come with adguard built in, or is that a newer thing? Well googled it after typing and it comes preinstalled on some routers now

    If your router supports Freshtomato firmware, it also has adguard you can enable too.
