I have an Asus NUC 12th gen with 32gb of ram and 1 TB of storage atm. I plan on expanding it with a DAS then run with that for a very long while until I can get a nice rack to play with and do some sys admin stuff down the line.
But ATM I got an arrstack going for Movies, TV, and Music. Alongside that I have Stalwart for mail, Immich for photo backup/gallery, Vaultwarden for password and auth manager, and opencloud for cloud storage.
Small Datacenter…
Hardware: 3x Dell R630’s, 256G (in 2) 512G (in 1) (Proxmox, Vmware ESX, NutanixCE) 1x Dell R730XD, 240TB, 256G-Ram (Truenas) 1x Dell R730XD, 50TB, 128GB Ram (Proxmox Backup Server)
In truenas containers I’m running my entire *Arr stack, cloudflare, Paperless, Ollama, Immich, etc.
In Proxmox I’m running a few Linux VM’s (mail gateway, Desktop VM’s for work, etc). VMWare and Nutanix are disposable hypervisors I use for deployment testing for work stuff.

i don’t self-host yet, but i have an old pc in my house, i just need to bring it with me to colege, so i can learn and start self-hosting
Set it up at home, open port 22 for SSH and configure some dynamic DNS service to auto update your IP to point at the IP of your home. No need to bring it with you!
Hello
Let’s have a look at the inventory
RPI 4B
HP EliteDesk 800 G2 i5-6500T, 8GiB RAM - this one is currently the mainstay of my lab, running containers with docker-compose
Dell OptiPlex 7060 Micro i7-8700T 32GiB RAM
How does mapcrafter run for you now? I’m hosting a vanilla server and that’s exactly what I need to see our map. I’m just concerned that it doesn’t function properly now due to recent updates.
Thanks!

Hello selfhosters.
Here’s my list of stuff:
On a VPS hosted in Germany:
On my home server (my old gaming PC, repurposed)
Hi, thanks for your comment! I just visited your blog and noticed that it loads fairly quickly: I assume you must have some sort of CDN set up. Could you point me to how you went about setting up the CDN for your domain/website? Thanks!

No CDN. The secret is way simpler: It’s a static site. Just a bunch of files served directly by Nginx. I use Pelican to generate the site from Markdown files.
Host all the things!

I even started hosting the website for my local Italian restaurant and they haven’t even realised it yet.
OK, here’s how it happened.
I was hungry, and I wanted to see the menu for my local pizza joint. I couldn’t find it anywhere.
I discovered that all their socials linked to a website that wouldn’t load. When I checked, the domain had lapsed.
Out of frustration, I purchased the domain and pulled the last snapshot of their website off archive.org. It had their full menu as a PDF.
6 months later and it’s still getting visitors from their facebook page, who are viewing the menu. They haven’t even realised.
