    Pi4 with 2TB SSD running:

    • Portainer
    • Calibre
    • qBittorrent
    • Kodi

    HDMI cable straight to the living room Smart TV (which is not connected to the internet).

    Other devices access media (TV shows, movies, books, comics, audiobooks) using VLC DLNA. Except for e-readers which just use the Calibre web UI.

    Main router is flashed with OpenWrt and running DNS adblocker. Ethernet running to 2nd router upstairs and to main PC. Small WiFi repeater with ethernet in the basement. It’s not a huge house, but it does have old thick walls which are terrible for WiFi propogation.

    Bad. I have a Raspberry Pi 4 hanging from a HDMI cable going up to a projector, then have a 2TB SSD hanging from the Raspberry Pi. I host Nextcloud and Transmission on my RPi. Use Kodi for viewing media through my projector.

        They’ve been rock solid so far. Even through the initial sync from my old file server (pretty intensive network and disk usage for about 5 days straight). I’ve only been running them for about 3 months so far though, so time will tell. They are like most mini pc manufacturers with funny names though. I doubt I’ll ever get any sort of bios/uefi update

      Why do you host FreshRSS and MiniFlux if you don’t mind me asking?

        I kind of prefer mini flux but I maintain the freshrss package in Alpine so I have an instance to test things.

    • An HP ML350p w/ 2x HT 8 core xeons (forget the model number) and 256GB DDR3 running Ubuntu and K3s as the primary application host
    • A pair of Raspberry Pi’s (one 3, one 4) as anycast DNS resolvers
    • A random minipc I got for free from work running VyOS as by border router
    • A Brocade ICX 6610-48p as core switch

    Hardware is total overkill. Software wise everything is running in containers, deployed into kubernetes using helmfile, Jenkins and gitea

    A 13-year-old former gaming computer, with 30TB storage in raid6 that runs *arrs, sabnzbd, and plex. Everything managed by k3s except plex.

    Also, 3-node digital ocean k8s cluster which runs services that don’t need direct access to the 30TB of storage, such as: grocy, jackett, nextcloud, a SOLID server, and soon a lemmy instance :)

        My instance’s image cache is like 230GB. Plus a bunch more for the db. Can confirm storage is needed.

        (unrelated question 😶 - anyone running pictrs 0.5 on local storage happily?)

        Thanks for the heads up.

        I plan on using digital ocean’s Spaces (s3-alike) where possible and also it’s intended to be a personal instance, at least to start - just for me to federate with others and subscribe to my communities. Given that, do you think it’ll still use much disk (block device) storage?

        Might be time to familiarize myself with DO’s disk pricing…

        I have a Kasm setup with blender and CAD tools, I use the GPU for transcoding video in Immich and Jellyfin, and for facial recognition in Immich. I also have a CUDA dev environment on there as a playground.

        I upgraded my gaming PC to an AMD 7900 XTX, so I can finally be rid of Nvidia and their gaming and wayland driver issues on Linux.

    At home - Networking

    • 10Gbps internet via Sonic, a local ISP in the San Francisco Bay Area. It’s only $40/month.
    • TP-Link Omada ER8411 10Gbps router
    • MikroTik CRS312-4C+8XG-RM 12-port 10Gbps switch
    • 2 x TP-Link Omada EAP670 access points with 2.5Gbps PoE injectors
    • TP-Link TL-SG1218MPE 16-port 1Gbps PoE switch for security cameras (3 x Dahua outdoor cams and 2 x Amcrest indoor cams). All cameras are on a separate VLAN that has no internet access.
    • SLZB-06 PoE Zigbee coordinator for home automation - all my light switches are Inovelli Blue Zigbee smart switches, plus I have a bunch of smart plugs. Aqara temperature sensors, buttons, door/window sensors, etc.

    Home server:

    • Intel Core i5-13500
    • Asus PRO WS W680M-ACE SE mATX motherboard
    • 64GB server DDR5 ECC RAM
    • 2 x 2TB Solidigm P44 Pro NVMe SSDs in ZFS mirror
    • 2 x 20TB Seagate Exos X20 in ZFS mirror for data storage
    • 14TB WD Purple Pro for security camera footage. Alerts SFTP’d to offsite server for secondary storage
    • Running Unraid, a bunch of Docker containers, a Windows Server 2022 VM for Blue Iris, and an LXC container for a Bo gbackup server.

    For things that need 100% reliability like emails, web hosting, DNS hosting, etc, I have a few VPSes “in the cloud”. The one for my emails is an AMD EPYC, 16GB RAM, 100GB NVMe space, 10Gbps connection for $60/year at GreenCloudVPS in San Jose, and I have similar ones at HostHatch (but with 40Gbps instead of 10Gbps) in Los Angeles.

    I’ve got a bunch of other VPSes, mostly for https://dnstools.ws/ which is an open-source project I run. It lets you perform DNS lookup, pings, traceroutes, etc from nearly 30 locations around the world. Many of those are sponsored which means the company provides them for cheap/free in exchange for a backlink.

    This Lemmy server is on another GreenCloudVPS system - their ninth birthday special which has 9GB RAM and 99GB NVMe disk space for $99 every three years ($33/year).
