Anyone else have it ? The more work I do setting things up like dockers, reverse proxies, single sign on, etc. the more I want to do it. But I’m running out of ideas of things to host that would actually benefit me. But I have that itch where I want more lol.
So far I have the following: (EDIT: added descriptions for those who aren’t familar with all of it. )
- Caddy - use this primarily as a reverse proxy to access my applications via my domain and outside the house
- Nextcloud - mainly using it for cloud storage but also some of their other apps likes decks and tasks as well as contacts and calendar.
- Memos - simple note taking app similar to twitter but personal.
- Miniflux - rss
- Authentik - sso
- Portainer - web view of dockers and status / health
- KitchenOwl - groceries / recipe management
- Actual - zero budgeting (like YNAB)
- Firefly iii - finances management
- Immich - images / iCloud replacement
- Organizr (barely using it. Trying to think of more use cases) - dashboard of all my services
- Speedtest - runs daily speed tests and monitors.
- Plex - host my media library
- Plex_Debrid / rclone - sync real Debrid with plex.
- rsync to backup data to one onsite and one off site location. Automated backups
- Watchtower automated docker updates
- Home Assistant - home automation
- Home bridge - Apple home automation
- Zigbee2mqtt - manage zigbee smart home devices
- Unifi controller - manage my network
I think that’s everything!
Edit: Thanks for the overwhelming responses! I really appreciate everyone with their opinions. First things first I did get borg setup for both my server and my desktop so thats awesome! I am waiting for response from my backup server admin if they can install rdiff-backup for me so I can utilize that as well for my cloud backups.
Going to take a look at a few other of the many suggestions here! More than a few I like!
Ohhh yeah we definitely are. I think what you are referring to is like snapshot backups I think. Which you are right I don’t believe rsync can do that without some major tweaking.
Thanks for clarifying now I’ll definitely check it out !
How are you liking KitchenOwl? I saw it in your list and looked it up, definitely seems like something I’ve been wanting for years, but also appearing to be a very new project that still needs a lot of development.
Basically what you said. It seems really cool with a lot of potential. But too early to say. Someone else suggested this I might try : https://davideshay.github.io/groceries/
Someone else mentioned some other grocery / recipe apps on my post but now I can’t find it. I know Nextcloud has one.
I hope it sees some good progress because the combination of meal recipes and grocery list (maybe with the addition of a weekly meal planner in between) is what I have been looking for. I would have just written my own long ago, but the offline sync to android devices is critical and I don’t know anything about writing android apps. I would jump in to try and help with this project but I can’t even figure out what language it’s written in and I’m most comfortable in javascript and php.
