Since you asked; My most used is ntfy [1] - It provides push notifications for pretty much anything and everything and can be easily integrated. It's used by a ton of selfhosters already, and I'm trying to make it better every day. (Disclaimer: I wrote it.) [1] https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy

Also posted yesterday: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31252441

No discussion as of yet, but I favorited it because I plan to try it out in the near future.

Thank you binwiderhier for doing all this hard work, your drive is impressive!

I'm late to the party but here's my list

- cadvisor - simple graphs of resource consumption, insights per docker stack

- cyberchef - a LOT of handy operations packed into one small app. Encode/decode any secrets you need and don't bother about privacy

- dozzle - logs browser from all docker stacks

- gogs - git mirror

- heimdall - all apps main panel

- minio - private S3 for my side projects

- nextcloud - private google drive / dropbox

- photoprism - photo management

- pypiserver - private pypi

- registry - docker registry (with UI)

- traefik - reverse proxy of all these services

- portainer - easily manage all of the above.

The coolest thing is that I don't even need to ssh into the instance (Synology NAS) to update / add / remove something. Literally everything can be achieved via portainer.example.com in this setup.

I just recently made my setup public so here's the repo if you're interested. https://github.com/tomwojcik/homeserver-traefik-portainer

My main "user-facing" applications are:

* Blue Iris - for video surveillance

* Home Assistant

* Jellyfin

My main backend things are:

* Node-RED - for more complicated home automation than can be reasonably built in Home Assistant

* deCONZ - for my Zigbee lights and sensors

* PostgreSQL

* StrongSwan and Wireguard VPNs - I'm still evaluating Wireguard. I like the simplicity, but there are some things that I can do with StrongSwan that I can't do with WireGuard (specifically, split-DNS).

* Pi-hole

* Kubernetes - I'm just playing with this at the moment, but I'm running Pi-hole in it as it's not a critical service.

* Nginx - reverse proxy and TLS termination.

* TrueNAS Core on a QNAP NAS

I'm sure there's some I missed.

My main goal is to replace cloud services so I can be Google-free. I've also got LineageOS + MicroG on my phone. This is all running in docker containers on NixOS (other than OPNSense), with automated restic backups to a NAS as well as Backblaze. One of my goals is to be able to deploy all this again from scratch with minimal effort, and I think I succeeded, though haven't had to test it yet. Nextcloud - for caldav a…

Could you link to Pintry? I couldn't find it from a quick Google search.

I finally found a use case for Pinterest after creating an account years ago and their landing page refreshed and acted weird so much in Firefox that they decided it was a phishing attempt and locked my account for some arbitrary amount of time. I'd rather not even start using it if there's a viable alternative

Most likely Sonarr, Radarr they are library management and fetch apps.

A collection of tools to help you get the media you probably paid too much for anyway but didn't get since Netflix and the rest never got the message that the reason why Spotify works even if it costs more than a CD a month is because everything is there.

Netflix today is just mockery, at least in Europe.

That said, I don't pirate, mostly because I believe in law and order.

But I certainly won't report anyone else for doing it. And if I have a chance I will vote for the guys who will crush copyright in its current form.
