Currently all containerised running on a debian VM on a Rockylinux Qemu/KVM hypervisor. Initially I was using rocky+podman but inevitably hit something I wanted to run that just straight up needed docker and was too much effort to try and get working. 🤷
Hardware is an circa 2012 gaming machine with a few ZFS raids for all of my Linux ISOs. It lives an extremely tortured existence and longs for the sweet release of death.
Toying with the idea of migrating it all to on-prem virtualised kubernetes cluster using helm charts to manage the stacks and using NFS mounts for persistent storage because I hate myself (and to upskill I guess)
What about you?

Thank you for your service
All in docker containers on an Ubuntu NUC
EDIT - also got a dedicated pivpn (wireguard+pihole) on a pizero and time machine server + borg backup server on a pi4 running yunohost
(copied from an older comment)
I run basically all of the Arr stack, Plex (more friendly to my less tech savvy family then my preferred solution Jellyfin), HAss, Frigate NVR, Obsidian LiveSync, a few Minecraft worlds, Docspell, Tandoor recipes, gitea, Nextcloud, FoundryVTT, an internet radio station, syncthing, Wireguard, ntfy, calibre, searx, traefik, Wallabag, FreshRSS, Kopia, Navidrome, and a few pet projects.
Some are used way more than others, but here is my list.
(Probably some underutilized app I’m forgetting)
I don’t really know what I’m doing so I’m currently banging my head against a wall trying to get nextcloud to work alongside a wordpress site both in docker, and this Lemmy is on a linode. I know a lot more about self hosting than I did a month ago that’s for sure, I wonder how long until I start trying to use ssh in my dreams.
I feel this pain. Trying to figure out how to get my HomeAssistant docker install to talk to the rest of my network and HomeKit is driving me up a wall. Integrating things by IP address is not fun lol But I know so much more than when I started doing it!
Now that you’ve written this? Tonight. It’ll happen tonight.
Only PiHole and Nextcloud
Uhhhhh, I would need to shell into my host and check what isn’t running…
Home Assistant (with Zigbee2MQTT)
Plex
Nextcloud
Bookstack
Paperless-ngx
CalibreWeb
Home box
Mealie
FreshRSS
Uptime Kuma
Healthchecks (used with borgbackup to keep track of whether my backups are working)
Grafana
Plus a bunch of other Apps I’ve forgotten about and a lot of the *arrs
Why run RockyLinux HV when everything is in a Debian VM anyway?
I just have Ubuntu server running docker on my old workstation which has plenty of RAM to spin up a production-sized workload just to play around.
I’ve setup these images up as Docker containers:
Just played around mostly, I haven’t scaled out any full infrastructure schemes yet, but that’s the plan for the workstation. Container and terraform testbed.
Container host started life as rocky, I honestly can’t remember why I switched distros
The KVM host also hosts a bunch of other random stuff, Debian running on Rocky is just the tip of the junkpile
This individual fornicates
…with great form and a lot of style — no room for doubts here.
This guy just said “I’m gonna make my own internet, with blackjack and hookers”
I have plex with radaar, sonaar + nzb + vpn. Stuck a 10tb HD in my pc (ryzen 7 3700x + 2070s) for my plex library and just leave it running.
I’m not an IT guy so I am happy I’ve had it running flawlessly for 6ish months. Will probably upgrade to a dedicated NAS in a year or so.
Since I built my pc, I feel fairly comfortable with the idea of building a NAS from the ground up. I want to use one of those NVIDIA graphic cards that allow more than 4 1080p encodes (I think that’s what it’s called).
I’ve always been curious about the pihole… one day.
Outside of jellyfin & pihole, I have no idea what anything else is.
I need to get on paperless ngx still… Partner’s trying out grocy too but it’s not part of the club yet
At home I have a Dell Power edge tower running Yunohost. The apps on there are Nextcloud, Navidrome, Gotify and HomeAssistant. It reaches the internet via tunnel to a wireguard server on an Ubuntu vps. I also have another vps which hosts Jellyfin, qbittorrent and the *arrs. I set that up using swizzin community edition on Ubuntu.
That media setup took a long time and many iterations to get working smooth. I tried a few docker-based setups early on, but none of them were simple enough for me to understand. For the home server, I’ve never had a reason to look for alternatives. Yunohost is awesome.
Just navidrome & the Synology suite (drive, photos, video)
I’m lazy 🫠
Lazy is good… I try not to think about the time I’ve invested in this stuff
Jellyfin, Shinobi, and more recently NextCloud. Looking into Home Assistant and Paperless.
Shinobi’s on a Pi4 and the Jellyfin/NC are on a mini PC.
Had never heard of Shinobi, looks interesting - are you using the
bear+elephanttensorflow object detection?No, I’m using it’s FTP based triggers. Since most cameras can upload snapshots to FTP servers when there’s motion, Shinobi has a feature to trigger motion with FTP.
