Hey, I’m new here - but not new to self-hosting :-)

Self-hosting started for me via hosting a few services on my NAS - and then it escalated a bit…

At home:

• 2 Proxmox hosts (Miniforum MS-01 & GEEKOM XT12 Pro), services running mostly as Docker stacks in LXC containers, deployed via Komodo
• (several) Synology NAS (DS918+, DS1520+, DX517, RS2423+) for storage and backups
• UniFi network hardware (UDM Pro, USW Aggregation, USW Pro 48 PoE, U6-Lite APs) with a couple of VLANs. 10 GbE where possible.
• Technitium as DNS (recently replaced my old setup with AdGuard Home)
• Authentik for SSO in front of almost everything
• Nginx Proxy Manager as reverse proxy, Uptime Kuma to monitor stuff, Homepage as dashboard
• The actual fun stuff: Immich, Home Assistant, Paperless-NGX, Mealie, Bar Assistant, Stirling-PDF, Forgejo, Dawarich, LubeLogger, Umami, PBS, Grafana, AFFiNE, Actual, lifeGLANCE, Grocy, Rallly, Rackula, SnapOtter, Wallos, Homebox, RomM, Excalidraw my media stack… the list keeps growing, as I’m sure you all know.

Outside:

• a small server at a German hoster for the real public-facing stuff (WordPress blogs etc.). I just recently revived my old blog, started blogging again and - old school - created a personal website :-D

More about me can be found there. Also my new blog posts are and will be mostly about self-hosting topics after a longer blogging hiatus of about 15 years. Yes, I know, blogs aren’t exactly in fashion anymore :-)

Looking forward to discussions & fresh ideas from the community!
