Password manager (Vaultwarden), photos (immich), git (Gitea).

@nopatience FreshRSS, Readeck, Outline, and OpenWebUI.

2026 will add Actual Budget to that list.

And, or course, most used of them all: Tailscale, without none of the above would be accessed remotely.

@anders how are you liking OpenWebUI? I always found it really slow and clunky. I use PageAssist.
in reply to jcrabapple

I find OWUI really good for using a variety of different models. Not slow at all for me.

I am fairly new to selfhosting and only do so locally, but I have been using:

#NextcloudPi - files, notes, music, room temperature, links to lots of things as well as...
#Karakeep - "read it later" articles
#Forgejo - non public repos and work in progress
#Watchtower - to update Forgejo and Karakeep
