Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

lmao mine looks simple af compared with most people here.
Behold my server :
Hardware:
Rasberry pi 5 8GB
1TB raid between old drives ( one from PC the other a just a regular external WD hard drive ).
Services
Everything in containers, if you want to know more check this blogpost.
Nothing wrong with simple! If it works for you that's all that matters!
What made you go with a RPI 5?
Right now I don't have much to tinker with, so I got something that down the line would serve that role.
Why the 5 specifically, instead of the 4 or other SBC came down to pricing in my region, raw power, and the PCIE slot in which I intend to put a nvme when upgrading my laptop.
Oooo I should do something like this! Right now I have a Pi 4 with OMV and just OMV on it. It’s even running on a SSD. It could do so much more!
OMV has such a nice Docker management interface too. I really feel spoiled with it.
I was planning on all my services running in ProxMox or something, but my OMV VM handles all of them except PiHole basically lol. OMV is snazzy. :D
I have a second pi for Pi-Hole! I’ve tried using OMV’s Docker, but I am too dumb to get it configured D: Would you happen to have any resources for getting it up and running?
Hey sorry for the delayed reply! That's a VERY good question, since things got a little different since they moved away from Portainer I remember a bit of friction switching over, but geeze it was a while ago...
I did find this link though:
https://wiki.omv-extras.org/doku.php?id=omv7%3Adocker_in_omv
That might be similar (and possibly better organized!) than the guides I was working with when that OMV subsystem was still a bit new. I hope that might help! 🙂
mine is a pi 4 but basically the same, just shoved inside a box for protection
