My long and mostly complete list:

• Audiobookshelf (GH)
  • Using for audiobooks. Ebooks, comics, and podcast support in early stages.
• Authelia (GH)
  • Using for two-factor authentication in front of all of my services. Critical infrastructure.
• Bazarr (GH)
  • Using for automated subtitle management. Have not needed to rely on it much.

• Courier
  • Using (occasionally) for package-tracking from various carriers.
• EmulatorJS
  • Using for retro-emulation.
• Gitea (GH) x2
  • Using as a git repo server, package repository, and for CI/CD automation. Is critical infrastructure in my lab. Could also write an entire post on this one.
• Headscale with Headscale-UI. Tailscale clients on various VMs LXCs, etc.
  • Using to securely network with my remote servers.
• Homepage
  • Using as a “single-pane-of-glass” to get an overview of service health with links to the various services.
• Invidious
  • Using in-place of YouTube.
• IT-Tools (GH)
  • Using for the myriad of various useful tools it offers.
• Jellyfin (GH)
  • My media player of choice. Using for movies and television, but supports music, ebooks, and photos in addition.
• Kopia Server (GH)
  • Using for data backups to my Minio instance on local NAS and Wasabi. Simple, fast, and reliable.
• Librespeed (GH)
  • Using for the occasional speedtest to my remote servers.
• Matrix stack using Conduit back end and Element-Web front end
  • Federated Discord essentially. Using as a private instance for friends and family.
• Minio
  • Using primarily as a gateway to storing backups, also serves git-lfs for Gitea.
• N8N (GH)
  • Using for home-automation, backing up my Reddit saved posts to a database, deal-alerts, and part of a CI/CD pipeline.
• NTFY (GH)
  • Using for infrastructure notifications mostly. Very simple and versatile alerting solution.
• NZBGet
  • Using for getting “usenet articles”.
• Paperless-NGX
  • Using for document archival. Important receipts, documentation, letters, etc. live here.
• Portainer (GH) with multiple agents on VM’s LXCs and VPSs
  • High level management of my various docker containers.
• Prowlarr
  • Using to provide torznab API to websites that dont natively have it. Integrates with Radarr and Sonarr
• Radarr (GH)
  • Using for movie management.
• Radicale
  • Using for contacts and calendar server.
• Raneto (GH)
  • Using as a knowledge base. Lab documentation, lists, recipes, lots of things live here. Using with with code-server and Gitea.
• Readarr (GH)
  • Using for book management
• Recyclarr (GH)
  • Using for Radar and Sonarr to sync search terms for their automations. Very useful, hard to summarize.
• Requestrr
  • Using (very rarely) as a requests bot for Radarr and Sonarr.
• SFTP-Go
  • Using mostly in-place of Nextcloud. Used to back up phones mostly.
• Shaarli (GH)
  • Using as a read-it-later service. Went through lots of these, and Shaarli has been good enough.
• Singlefile-Archive
  • A hacky way of presenting pages saved with the singlefile browser extension. Not exactly happy with the solution, but for my ocasional use it does work.
• Sonarr (GH)
  • Using as TV series manager
• Speedtest-Tracker (GH)
  • Using to get periodic speedtests. Plan to automate results to blast my ISP if my service speed gets too low.
• Traefik (GH) on each seperate host
  • Using as a web proxy in front of my various services. Critical infrastructure.
• Transmission (GH)
  • Using to get “Linux ISOs”
• Uptime Kuma (GH)
  • Using to monitor site and services status along with a few others. Integrated with NTFY for alerts.
• Vaultwarden
  • Using as my password manager. Have been using for years, cannot recommend enough.
• A handful of static websites served with NGINX
  • The old standby, its been reliable as a webserver.

These services are the result of years of development and administrating my lab and while there is still some cruft, it’s mostly services that I think have real utility.

As far as hardware:

• Running pfsense on a toughbook laptop as a router-firewall.

• A SuperMicro 24 bay disk-shelf with Proxmox and ZFS for NAS duties and a couple services.

• Lenovo Tiny boxes with a Proxmox cluster for the majority of my local services.

• Dell managed switch

• A few Raspberry-pi’s with Raspbian for various things.

• Linksys AP for wifi

Edit: Spelling is hard.

Currently all LAN only, still in the experimental stage finding out what’s useful/preferable to me and what I want to keep:

KEEPING
Pi-Hole - ad/malware/tracker blocking
Portainer - Easy Docker
Syncthing - Sync folders between devices
Planka - Kanban board
I.T. Tools - Handy I.T. Tools
Bookstack - Personal documentation
Mealie - Recipe manager/meal planner
Jellyfin + usual accompaniments - Media Management
Navidrome - Music library
Changedetection - Stock monitoring
Gotify - For push notifications from other apps
Filebrowser
That Word Game ;)

UNDECIDED (may swap for alternatives or just remove)
Organizr - Homepage
Jump - Homepage
Homepage - Yup, another homepage!
Linkding - Bookmarks
Shiori - Pocket replacement
Etebase - CalDAV & CardDAV
Whoogle - Google without the crap
Photoprism - Photo management
Libreddit (not being used now!)
QBittorrent - for Linux ISOs
Uptime-Kuma (for when I do open a few services to family)
Ryot (beta) “Roll Your Own Tracker” - Media Tracker

PLANNING TO ADD
Reverse-proxying (likely NPM) + Security (Fail2Ban, Autheilia?)
Audiobooks
Comic book management
Translation service
Document manager
Home Assistant on its own Pi4 when I can get hold of one

• Plex and Jellyfin for movies and TV shows. I want to switch from Plex to Jellyfin but it is not quite there yet. It‘s very little effort to keep Jellyfin running in parallel though. I am keeping it around to regularly compare the two and re-evaluate.
• Tube Archivist for archiving and watching YouTube videos.
• Miniflux for reading feeds.
• Nextcloud, mainly for calendars and contacts; occasionally for sharing files with others.
• Syncthing for syncing files.
• Financier for budgeting.
• Paperless-ngx for managing documents.
• Qbittorrent for downloading and sharing Linux ISOs.
• Prowlarr for searching Linux ISOs.
• Copyparty for sharing Linux ISOs with friends.
• Shaarli for saving bookmarks.
• Jekyll for statically generating my personal blog.
• Caddy as HTTP server / reverse proxy for all of the above. Automatically provisions certificates from Let‘s Encrypt.
• PostgreSQL as database for Nextcloud and Miniflux.
• Simple Nixos Mailserver for emails with Postfix, Dovecot and rspamd.
• Dehydrated for getting certificates from Let‘s Encrypt for the mail server.
• Btrbk and Restic for backups.

Most of this stuff runs on my server at home (ASRock J4105-ITX, 8 GB RAM , 250 GB SSD, 18 TB HDD). The mail server and the blog run on a cheap VPS (1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, 20 GB SSD). Both servers run NixOS.

As an offensive security worker… I can’t help but read people listing out their attack surface 😂

Oh my jesus, does this thread really have 400+ comments
