What are your most used self-hosted applications?
I host most of my stuff on ESXi VMs, mostly Fedora.<p>Local Video&#x2F;Music: mythtv with fanless minipc for front end.<p>email: (sendmail&#x2F;spamassassin&#x2F;dovecot with Thunderbird front end)<p>sharing&#x2F;collaboration: Nextcloud<p>Chat: Matrix&#x2F;Synapse with Element web for the past year or so, Openfire (XMPP) for at least a decade.<p>Ad block: pi-hole<p>DNS: local recursive resolver (BIND)<p>spell&#x2F;usage check: langtool (minimal usage, but interesting)<p>torrents: deluge&#x2F;deluge web<p>proxy (forward): squid (mostly to cache fedora updates)<p>Podcasts: podgrab (just installed this based on an HN story a few weeks ago.  I like it!)<p>Firewall: Netfilter&#x2F;IPTables on fanless minipc<p>I was also running a Diaspora pod for a while, but got rid of it.  I may go back to it at some point.<p>Streaming: Currently I use a Roku stick for this, but have been playing around with kodi and jellyfin.  I hate kodi.  jellyfin is pretty cool, but can&#x27;t handle large music collections (jellyfin server crashes when trying to load my 20,000+ music tracks).<p>I won&#x27;t use them for video, since both seem to think that I should organize my video files (10,000+) according to <i>their</i> strictures (TV vs. Movies, etc.) rather than allowing me to maintain the organization I&#x27;ve used for <i>decades</i> (genre).  What&#x27;s more, using their clients, I&#x27;d likely need to transcode many videos, whereas my mythtv front end (via ffmpeg) handles just about any format I throw at it.<p>Now that I think about it, I self-host <i>everything</i> and eschew any &quot;cloud&quot; (read: someone else&#x27;s servers) services, as <i>my</i> data is <i>mine</i> and how&#x2F;when I use it is <i>my</i> business, not anyone else&#x27;s.<p>I just wish that more developers would focus on ease of installation[0] instead of docker containers or rafts of non-standard dependencies, which would allow less technical folks to self host this stuff -- incentivizing a broader ecosystem for FOSS and self-hosted stuff.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=30783477" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=30783477</a><p>Edit:  Fixed list formatting.
