What else should I selfhost? (feddit.org)

So, I am soon going to finally set up my first home server. Exams are not that far away, I am motivated as shit, my first own domain is bought and I want to level up my sysadmin skills.

Currently my plans look like this:

Host Jellyfin
Host my own NAS
Some form of hosted musicstreaming integration with my local music
Automate Backups and push them on my server
make all of the above things available where ever I want using my own self hosted domain.
run my own dns

In the long term I also want to be able to host my own webapps, since I will soon start to develop one for someone.

Now I want to know what suggestions do you have, for stuff thats really cool and that I can selfhost.

Edit: thanks for all the replies. Definitely going to look into this.

I strongly recommend Overseerr if you are going to run a video server.

Forget piracy. I only host dumps of my physical media (which at least where I am is perfectly legal), but that thing has an database of international streaming soruces. I use it just as a watchlist and to check whether I have access to a thing on a commercial streaming service already. It is effectively Justwatch for your streaming media.

Immich is a pretty obvious thing, too, if you want to get out of commercial image hosting services.

I'd say, though, that's a fairly ambitious plan, and if your self-hosted apps, your home webhosting and your NAS are all going to live on the same home server I'd certainly figure out security and backups before overcommitting. That plan is a lot of hard drives and failure points you're gonna be wrangling.

This was merged with jellyseer and is just called seer now. I believe it's 'safe' to switch to the develop branch they have available. I've had zero issues so far.

Hah. Good to know. I haven't refreshed that container in a while and the data keeps populating just fine, so I hadn't considered it. Makes a lot of sense to consolidate all the media server options into one package, though. I'll take a peek at the new one.
