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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Can't attach multiple photos or config in the post but if anyone's curious I can share them later.

There are a few minimized headers by default and extra tabs not shown that would otherwise clutter the homepage. On those pages/tabs I use some extra custom API widgets that are polling either homeassistant, ollama, or some other APIs. I also have some webhooks that serve as toggles for some switches in home-assistant.

Partially configured some parts via LLM but please don't crucify me for that. Home-assistant templates use the devil's syntax.

Slap in a spare GPU, and self-host one!

The 30B-class models are unbelievably good now, for being so small. They're kinda where Claude was like a year ago, if not less. And (with the right backend) they aren't expensive to host.

OP just posting to show off their 64gigs of RAM, 1TB boot SSD, and 26TB of platter storage.

[–] swankypantsu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm just lucky I got in before the madness started. The ram was free with a AM4 CPU I bought a long time ago and the storage was from goharddrive.

Same. I actually built my first computer a year before prices went super saiyan but it sounds like you got an even better deal. My system is:

  • Intel 14100 - $98
  • 2×16 DDR4 Corsair 3200 - $57
  • Asrock B660 - $98
  • Corsair 80+ bronze PSU - $70
  • 500GB Crucial SSD - $37
  • Seagate 28TB HHD - $368

So $728 plus a cheapo case. Today it would be $1171 just casually picking the same parts from eBay, Amazon, and Newegg. That's a 160% jump.

Shit looks so fucking sexy. God damn.

It's looking good! I need to start polishing mine up, going to use some of this as inspiration!

I used Claude to do my initial Homepage config, but I'm doing the dirty work getting in there and making it mine.

This is beautiful. I have my little server running with my arr stack and jellyfin, etc but didnt know about this. Can you lead me in the right direction with some links or resources to get a nice dashboard setup on my server? Thanks in advance

Awesome, thanks

I like everything but the background, but that's just a personal taste. Looks awesome bro. I like the way you centered everything, in lieu of all spread to the edges. I'm assuming some CSS was used.

[–] swankypantsu@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Thanks! I don't have any custom css. I just zoomed out a lot to get the screenshot. It normally fits screen width.

It still rocks dude, and you have quite the server stack going there. Top notch.

Homepage never looks good with backgrounds tbh

[–] androidul@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

[–] dparticiple@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

I do like a nice dense dashboard. Good work!

How to create this Arr-Schedule widget?

[–] swankypantsu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

its using the calendar and sonarr radarr apps https://gethomepage.dev/widgets/services/calendar/ Just change "service_group" to where you put sonarr and radarr.
