What is everyone else hosting? What am I missing?
You must log in or register to comment.
Personal preference: Jellyfin instead of plex
Some that I run that you don’t seem to have anything for:
- Lancache (if you have several gaming PCs on the network or host any kind of lan party)
- surveillance camera software e.g. shinobi
- I see grafana, but other monitoring services like icinga, librenms, etc
- Mayan EDMS - I’ve found this really helpful as anything I get in the mail, I scan in, and this makes it all searchable and retrievable.
- There’s a whole hole you could dig if you start getting into home automation (I use home assistant)
I’ve been looking at something for my cameras. I got Zoneminder running but configuring its behaviour was a nightmare.
All I want is to keep a limited rotating backup of a few cameras. Would Shinobi do that?
Shinobi or frigate are fine for that.
Frigate markets itself as “AI detection” but it isn’t required.
Also frigate is open source and.ahinobi is closed source.
Shinobi is absolutely not closed source: https://gitlab.com/Shinobi-Systems/Shinobi
Shinobi would absolutely do that if that’s all you want it to do. It’s definitely not a one-click setup either, though, unfortunately.

Oh damn, that looks especially rad! I do run Home Assistant and pipe everything through a selfhosted MQTT server, so there are a ton of use cases I can think of for video detections being piped through MQTT for me. Ty!
What about Jellyfin do you prefer? I remember jellyfin not having the greatest hw encoding when I tried but that may be different now.
I use Intel Quick Sync and getting that to work with Plex through Unraid was a breeze. I certainly did not have the same experience with Jellyfin at the time.
I’m a huge supporter of open source, so Plex being closed alone makes it gross to me. Very little about Plex felt selfhosted.
I also like to tinker a lot and jellyfin lets me screw around with much more under the hood - precise encoding settings, dlna customizations, I’m sure there’s more but the primary driver was ideology. I’m not giving my money to some company that’s primarily developing features I don’t want so that I can use my own media to the fullest.
I’ve had very little issue with hardware accelerated encoding, but I already had the right drivers installed and on unix OSes that’s probably the hardest part
Thanks for the response! I think I’ll give it another shot when I get home. I’ve been procrastinating some of my home assistant projects so this is perfect haha
What is this dashboard?
It’s called homepage
This is awesome, thanks! Going to install it on my Odroid HC2 running OpenMedia 6!
Thanks!
Things I have that I don’t see on the list
- Home Assistant
- Frigate
- Mosquitto
- ESPHome
- Gitea
- SyncThing
- Weavescope
- Vaultwarden
- Keyper
- Kanboard
What do they do?
Home assistant is a home automation hub that integrates with almost everything.
Mosquitto is an MQTT message queue.
Frigate is an NVR that works with many camera systems and offers AI detection
ESPHome is a platform for programming ESP32/ESP8266 based devices for home automation
Gitea is a self hosted alternive to GitHub and includes an action runner
SyncThing is a peer to peer sync tool that allows you to sync PC to PC, mobile to PC, and mobile to mobile.
WeaveScope is a tool for detecting and monitoring containers across multiple hosts
Vaultwarden is a rust-based alternative server for BitWarden
Keyper is a container that manages SSH key authentication in a great way
Kanboard is a kanban board
Do you run homepage next to HA?
I mean homepage looks very sleek and I had a sudden urge to set it up :-) , but tbh, having HA set up for both browser/tablet and phone, I don’t think I’d ever actually look at homepage…

If you have any smart devices in your home (and even many use cases outside of that) you could run “homeassistant” to pipe all your different smart devices through a common, extensible, scriptable interface.
Movies and TV shows
Nothing I can see. But definitely things I’m missing!
So Thankyou!
looks amazing!!
What is this dashboard?
Its…beautiful 🥲
How do you host it? I’m getting more and more into the idea of running my own stuff. Do you have a server set up at home, or are you renting servers somewhere?
Looks awesome! How do you use tdarr? Does it transcode all media picked up by sonarr/radarr?
Looks super cool. How do you add the uptime on top?
It’s one of the standard Homepage widgets. You can also enable disk utilization etc
Wish I had the time/energy to host this much… Currently I’m running
- Plex
- Nextcloud (snap on ubuntu VM because its easy)
- pihole
- pivpn
I’m also running Jellyfin and Navidrome, in an attempt to determine if they are good alternatives to Plex for like 6 months at this point. See comments above about time/energy.
Looks breddy gucci — holy mother of pimples, 39% blocked sites on your pihole? Where is it being used, on your phone?
Not that crazy. I think I’m sitting at 23.5%?
Alexas phone home… a lot. My TV does the same. As do many random devices in my network.
I have IoT devices that would love to phone home but I’m controlling them locally so have disallowed them connecting to the internet.
It adds up quickly.
Tiny tiny rss!
How is it compared to freshness?
PS: I miss oldfart IYKWIM
