Ask HN: What do you self-host?
I pay $7 a month for a server and I self-host a bunch of services for personal use:
- n8n (n8n.io) - Zapier alternative
- Privatebin (github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin) - encrypted pastebin for sharing sensitive data
- Headscale (github.com/juanfont/headscale) - open-source implementation of the Tailscale control server. Lets me set up a personal VPN easily.
- Argo CD (github.com/argoproj/argo-cd) - I use the VPS as single-node Kubernetes, and argo lets me manage my deployments.
- Hashicorp Vault (vaultproject.io) - For managing secrets.
I also wanted to self-host something like Gitpod or Github Codespaces, but there was nothing available. So I decided to build it. It's at https://hocus.dev if you want to check it out.
What do you self host? I'm curious to see what else I could put up.

- argulane 4y agoI host quite a lot of different services * wikijs - personal notes and wiki * gitea - git server * matrix synapse - for communicating in my friend group * quassel irc client server * miniflux - rss/atom reader * wireguard vpn - just the plain wg-quick config nothing fancy * plex - media server for my smart tv * PiGallery 2 - really fast photo album viewer * webdav server using nginx and zfs - justed just as a general network file storage. Its a old Dell R710 server that I host at a local hackerspace. It also has a external SAS disk shelf connected to it with 96TB of spinning disks in it.

- simonblack 4y agoSimple stuff to the WAN: ftp file server, website, ssh login. A few extra things on the LAN: Samba, mysql, rsync backup, Usenet News. That is sufficient for me.
