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.
- Calibreweb
- FreshRSS
- Grampsweb
- Emacs
- Gitea
- Stirling-PDF
- Vaultwarden
- Pihole
- Pyload
- Glances
- Syncthing
- Homepage
- Karakeep
I don’t often need to mess with PDFs but man StirlingPDF is just fantastic on the odd occasion that I do.
Also, curious - what do you use a download manager like PyLoad for? I’ve seen stuff like this but never found a use case.
PyLoad isn’t a container I run 24/7 because the use cases are a bit limited. Basically, if I have a large list of files that I want to pass to my NAS (perhaps a list from something like DownThemAll) that won’t complete in a short sitting, I will pass that list to PyLoad so it can just run the background.
I once downloaded about 2,000 or so office files and tools like this have let me do that automatically.
Mumble and Wireguard
Some of my friends are heading back to mumble because discord is getting too bloated with useless features.
Wireguard is to be able to access my local network when I am away.
I hear about people wanting alternatives to discord though I never got into using it too much personally, but does anyone know about whether or not Revolt chat is a good open-source self-hostable solution?
I’ve been testing MatterMost for a few days.
It’s closer to Slack than Discord but has most of the same features.
Check out Tailscale. It uses Wireguard under the hood, but it’s magic.
God stop pushing tailscale. It’s just abstraction on top of wireguard. Those of us who knows how VPNs work don’t want a third party involved in our routing.
- 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.
Immich is really good actually. Completely replaced Google Photos for me.
