Selfhosted

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.

I just spent a good chunk of today migrating some services onto new docker containers in Proxmox LXCs.

As I was updating my network diagram, I was struck by just how many services, hosts, and LXCs I'm running, so counted everything up.

  • 116 docker containers
    • Running on 25 docker hosts
    • 50 are the same on each docker host - Watchtower and Portainer agent
  • 38 Proxmox LXCs (19 are docker hosts)
  • 8 physical servers
  • 7 VLANs
  • 5 SSIDs
  • 2 NASes

So, it got me wondering about the size of other people's homelabs. What are your stats?
