Homelab discussion

Hello everyone! I’m kinda curious about the services you self-host, and I would love to see what do y’all use!

I’ll start, and list the services I self-host:

My list
  • Immich (bye Google photos)
  • Open WebUI (web interface for llms)
  • Fireshare (clips hosting and sharing)
  • Home Assistant
  • FMD Server (find my device alternative)
  • YourSpotify (spotify tracker)
  • Kener (uptime monitoring)
  • AdGuard Home
  • SearXNG

Thanks for reading, and thanks to anyone who participate!

Incus, all services running in lxc. Ansible and templates to run startup stuff for new containers (ssh keys, etc). My docker setup is primitive, I regressed down to individual containers for each with docker compose. It’s so trivial to restore last night’s lxc backup that k3s/k8s doesn’t really help me. In fact, i’ve been simplifying everything to suit my use case, including hardware.

  • sonarr
  • radarr
  • bazarr
  • prowlarr (I’m close to getting rid of this)
  • transmission
  • sabnzbd
  • kavita for comics only
  • calibre Web automated (CWA)
  • frigate NVR
  • navidrome
  • immich
  • openwisp to manage 2x openwrt access points
  • homeassistant
  • technitium DNS x2
  • uptimekuma monitoring x2
  • ntfy for push notifications
  • ansible
  • jellyfin
  • radicale
  • syncthing
  • Wireguard
  • wanderer for GPS track mgmt on “big screen”. I track my GPS trails and drives as a hobby. I’d love a self-hosted comaps web client, but I can’t really find one. :(

Plus lots of transient trials that come and go with interest. Rotating 7 day/4 week/3 months backups by NFS with pruning, includes snapshots, but I set expires on these.

This is running on 2x minipcs with 48GB ram each, but they are way overkill. I just received a mini itx i5 board, which will house all of the containers, save VPN and 1x DNS, which I will run on an SBC.

So I’m going down from 2x servers + 1 NFS nas to one 1u server for everything plus one SBC so I can reboot it.

Power consumption is king factor for me now.

I initially set it up because both sonarr and radarr were making their own api calls to indexers and I would get some “daily max exceeded” for certain sites. The idea was that if one host made the calls instead of 2, I wouldn’t get rate limited as much.

Now I only have my nzb and pb indexers, the first has no such limits because I pay for it, and the second is only used as a second priority, so I don’t really hit limits anymore.

If you have a bunch of arr services, this is useful. But I only have the two, so I don’t think it’s much work to set indexers up individually.

Edit: this ^^ is my suggestion. Add the indexers manually.
