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. )

  1. Caddy - use this primarily as a reverse proxy to access my applications via my domain and outside the house
  2. Nextcloud - mainly using it for cloud storage but also some of their other apps likes decks and tasks as well as contacts and calendar.
  3. Memos - simple note taking app similar to twitter but personal.
  4. Miniflux - rss
  5. Authentik - sso
  6. Portainer - web view of dockers and status / health
  7. KitchenOwl - groceries / recipe management
  8. Actual - zero budgeting (like YNAB)
  9. Firefly iii - finances management
  10. Immich - images / iCloud replacement
  11. Organizr (barely using it. Trying to think of more use cases) - dashboard of all my services
  12. Speedtest - runs daily speed tests and monitors.
  13. Plex - host my media library
  14. Plex_Debrid / rclone - sync real Debrid with plex.
  15. rsync to backup data to one onsite and one off site location. Automated backups
  16. Watchtower automated docker updates
  17. Home Assistant - home automation
  18. Home bridge - Apple home automation
  19. Zigbee2mqtt - manage zigbee smart home devices
  20. 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.
