A simple question to this community, what are you self-hosting? It’s probably fun to hear from each-other what services we are running.

Please mention at least the service (e.g. e-mail) and the software (e.g. postfix). Extra bonus points for also mentioning the OS and/or hardware (e.g. Linux Distribution, raspberry pi, etc) you are running on.

    • Jellyfin - film/tv, both locally and on a seedbox.
    • stable-diffusion-webui - self explanatory
    • Matrix/synapse - private instant messaging for myself and tech minded friends
    • MeTube - web UI for youtube-dl
    • Stash - like Jellyfin/Plex but for any adult media you may have (link is SFW).
    • Lemmy - only privately just seeing how it all works, I don’t intend to make a public instance.
    • A fairly typical LEMP (Ubuntu, Nginx, MariaDB, PHP) stack on my VPS

    Stuff I used to use or have at least tried out:

    • Plex
    • Calibre-web
    • Typical LAMP (CentOS, Apache, MySQL, PHP) stack back in the old days (PHP4/5) when I did a bit of web dev.

        I jumped ship due to privacy concerns - I didn’t like that my internally-hosted Plex web home had like 12 things blocked by uBlock, and I really like open source software!

        Tbh I liked Plex when I used it years ago, then I stopped using it as I went full on Netflix/Amazon Prime out of sheer laziness. Having now come back to self-hosting and acquiring media myself, I went with Jellyfin mostly because it’s FOSS and it does everything I need it to. I noticed Plex has some features locked behind a subscription which I don’t like the idea of, and iirc there were some privacy issues at some point? So those things made me hesitant to give Plex another go.

        Also, I had used a friend’s Jellyfin before hosting it myself and I was really impressed with how well it worked on my devices, whereas when I used to use Plex I’d see stuttering/buffering issues from time to time, especially if watching a foreign film for example and the subtitles wouldn’t load/render from the .srt file properly.

        As for apps… my TV runs Android and the Jellyfin app on that works great, and no problems with the iPad app either. I can’t speak for consoles though as I don’t use mine any more so have no idea what the JF app is like on those.

        Because Jellyfin is plain and simple and does not try to sell me “services” or “content” made by plex. It just plays what is on my drive

        Whenever I try and use Plex I run into buggy permissions, I’ve never had that issue with jellyfin.

        I liked jellyfins customization but I had to go back to Plex after it kept fucking up on me constantly. And trying to use the app to stream stuff to my phone was annoying as fuck, always wants the IP address, cant just log in like you can on plex

          I never had to provide the server address kr to relogin in the app personally. That’s an annoying bug you had!
