I’m already hosting pihole, but i know there’s so much great stuff out there! I want to find some useful things that I can get my hands on. Thanks!
Nextcloud to replace Google drive/docs. Jellyfin or plex for media. The arrs to aquire media (if you have the patience). A blog? A game server to play with friends.
I suggest using docker and docker-compose as it makes everything way easier. It does still take time and it can be frustrating but it is very rewarding.
For me it was Code Server. I write a lot of text and having my Markdown files available on every device is nice :)
I’m new to self hosting as well, so far I’ve set up Nextcloud and FreshRSS. Wanted to look at PiHole myself next!
If you don’t have one already, I suggest keeping an on this account for updates to various pi inventory.
Paperless-ng (or ngx, but I don’t run that flavor)
Calibre for ebook and digital comics collection, plex for movies/tv/music
Nginx as a reverse proxy in front of those for remote https access.
