Depends on the situation of course, but for us:
- immich: family photos are important
- docker + ssh: we enjoy hobbying with code, nerds be nerds
- samba: a file sharing protocol that works on all of our things
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.

Yeaaah I hate to admit it... But Samba is the only crossplatform sharing protocol that works with every OS... I wish I could switch to NFS.
That and ftp, but that protocol seems to be cared enough for to not be maintained. Weirdly enough, samba made it into the linux kernel recently
Immich (Photo backup), Vaultwarden (FOSS Biwarden server for passwords)
Plex, channels, mail, calendar, contacts, wiki
XBev 4thud EE
Zim + syncthing + mega
Gitea, wger, jellyfin, samba, *arr stack, jellyseer
@bpt11 headscale is high on my list, since it enables everything else I host to be behind a tailscale VPN.
Radicale for calendar, tasks & contacts
Syncthing for file sync
FreshRSS is the best I've found for RSS
Jellyfin for media
Audiobookshelf for audiobooks (but really more for podcasts, in my case)
