Either self-hosted or cloud, I assume many of you keep a server around for personal things. And I’m curious about the cool stuff you’ve got running on your personal servers.

What services do you host? Any unique stuff? Do you interact with it through ssh, termux, web server?

    Minetest server, arr suite, plex, Pihole, calibre, homesssistant, Nextcloud.

    Interact with it through a Homarr webpage and all of it is virtualized through proxmox.

      I’ve been a software engineer for 8 years and I’ve had my own Jellyfin server (and before that, Plex) set up for 4 years on a server that I built myself.

      Despite this, I don’t have a damn clue what “virtualized through Proxmox” means any time I read it.

        They are just running things in VMs. They may even have a cluster with some sort of high availability.

          Or containers, but lxc instead of docker-like. They’re like full VMs in operation but super lightweight. Perfect for some needs.

              U crazy! lxc is incredibly lightweight compared to a vm, I’m often amazed at what it can do with just a few hundred MB of memory.

              Also you can map storage straight from the host and increase allocation instantly, if needed. Snapshotting and replication are faster too.

              I’m always bummed when I’m forced to run a VM, they seem archaic vs PVE CTs. Obviously there are still things VMs are required for, though.

        Proxmox is a hypervisor, like VMware. They are just running containers and / or VMs. Procmox is the management interface.
