A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (donβt cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

A bunch (47 containers at present)... Won't list them here as its kind of redundant with what a lot of other people are running. My latest is Lemmy (lemmy.nine-hells.net).
Plex and a web app I wrote for a Twitch community I moderate.
Plex is on a server in the Netherlands and the web app is just AWS. I would've hosted on some spare hardware but my internet is notoriously trash and I didn't want to risk it going down while people are playing in the app.
Plex I might move onto a NAS at some point but I'm just too lazy lol.
I run a bunch of bots, some databases plus
I've got a couple VPSes, hosting
Self hosting email is obnoxious, but it's also one of the only remnants of the traditional distributed internet that's still broadly accepted.
Have you tried FreshRSS for feeds ? I'm pretty happy with it.
I just got going on matrix and I wish there were better XMPP iOS apps. Chat services without friends donβt work and bad iOS apps keeps people away. After all this time there isnβt a good adoption of XMPP for iOS except iMessage I guess.
So... ODroid N2+ is hosting a Home Assistant. Nothing to add.
I have an old Intel Nuc nuc5cpyh that is currently hosting my WordPress blog at https://some-techy-tinkering.com/. Made it self-hosted a month ago and can't be happier.
The last machine is Intel Nuc nuc7i7bnh with 2 TBs of internal and 4.5 TBs of external drives. This is my main server with:
I have a MediaWiki instance on my laptop (I've found the features of all other wikis/mindmaps/knowledge databases decisively insufficient after having a taste of MW templates, Semantic MediaWiki and Scribunto).
Also some smaller things like pihole-standalone, Jellyfin and dictd.
Curious what you use a local version of MediaWiki for?
I've been working on expanding my homelab recently. I have a physical box at home serving as an LXC host along with a few VPSes. I'm now up to:
I think I read an old blog post once that said "Servers tend to multiply like rabbits" and it's 100% true.
I have a 800W solar panel and some home automatization at home. Therefor, I use MQTT & NodeRED.
I have a few raspberry pis, running Home Assistant, Unifi controller, PiHole... Otherwise i have DigitalOcean droplets, one hosts my Lemmy instance, and another hosts a couple of side project websites (my wife's freelance business, and some other stuff)
Jellyfin Nextcloud Homeassistant Mattermost Gitlab Visions of Chaos Oobabooga Automatic1111
I'm just getting my server up and running! Previously it only ran Honeassistant.
Now it runs proxmox, which boots 2 vms, one for HAOS and another for Debian. On the Debian vm there is currently Plex, nextcloud, and some -arr apps.
8 also have a separate raspberry pi pihole. I've had that going for years now, I think I first made it 2019.
Do you have some massive server home or using VPS/VDS?
I know it's been 2 months but I just stumbled upon your question.
Late to the party and after reading through some of these setups I may have to expand mine soon (it never ends does it?), here is what I have right now.

There are some other things floating around in my homelab that aren't really 'selfhosted' things, just important to the home network:
3 HP Microserver Gen8's
-x1 with ESXi hosting pfSense
-x2 with TrueNas Scale for backups
R610 with ESXi for a few remote desktops and Home Assistant (which I'm sure I'll move to docker at some point).
Hi
I started self hosting 3 years ago when I got wind of tailscale. I've always cared about privacy and building things so that was great.
My infrastructure consists of two machines.
One - my personal and work server A deskmini i3 12th gen
256GB Boot drive 4TB NVME data drive
-photoprism -syncthing -nextcloud -Firefox+VPN -archivebox
Two - my media server that I let 6ish other people access - PC tower i3 12th gen
512GB Boot and docker config file drive 4*4TB HDD mergerfs for raw data
-jellyfin -*arr suite -gluetun VPN -audiobookshelf (also for auto downloading podcasts) -calibre-web
Starting to fall down the rabbit hole of self hosting,
Unraid, Plex & Pihole. Next project is Opnsense, then starting to look at Home Assistant.
A 6 node k3s cluster with a Synology for network storage running:
Managed with FluxCD.
I host one of the worlds last gopher sites. And some Telegram bots, on Raspberry Pi's.
Wow, is Gopher still a thing?
I host:
I think that should be it. I left out some less important ones and probably forgot a few that I don't use that often. All these services are spread across 2 servers at home and a small VPS mainly used for the mailserver and Uptime Kuma.
Honeygain etc.... First time I hear about them. Do you mind sharing how much you get?
It really depends on the type of IP you have and your location, but it's really not much for me. From Honeygain I get like 20 bucks every 6 months and when paying out the money around 4$ get lost by transaction fees, but better than nothing and those services use so few resources, you don't even notice them running in the background.
you might want to check honeygain's network calls, because I had it running and then suddenly noticed my IP got banned on quite a few websites.
Turns out it was my honeygain traffic that caused it, I quickly uninstalled it after that.
Which websites are you referring to? I never noticed any problems from the sites I use. Only when I encounter any kind of captcha I always have to manually select images and it will never solve itself like some did in the past. But not sure if thats due to me not being logged in with Google in my main browser or if it's caused by Honeygain.
