Figured we’d start this community off with a question about what you’re running in your homelab!
This could be anything from hardware to software to things your running in the cloud (#cloudlab).
Hardware and diagram pics are always welcome!

dust collectorhome server - My Ryzen 5625U(from the top of my head) laptop which I use for light gaming and work mostly. Runs Artix Linux
- My beloved Ryzen 3 1200, RX 580, 2 1TB SSDs + 1 240GB SSD + 1 TB HDD. Also runs Artix Linux
- My Raspberry Pi running Alpine, workint as a
Intel nuc
- homeassistant
- mqtt
- rtl433
- piper
- portainer
- zigbee2mqtt
- esphome
- calibre
- jellyfin
- doods
- pihole
- adguard
- valheim and other game servers Synology nas
- caldav
- redundant pihole
- files hosting
- unificontroller Older thin client
- opnsense with wireguard Unifi Switches and APs
Nice list! I’m curious, why are you running 2 pi-hole and an adguard instance?
(I also run 2 pi-hole instances for redundancy)
I have 3 vlans and have 1 blocker for each…was too lazy to configure rules per ip adress.
I’ve moved to technitium DNS nowadays. I found that it works better for me then AGH.
Has anyone tried running a Lemmy instance on theirs? I know it wouldn’t be a good idea to run one for public use, but I’m curious if anyone has tried just for fun.
I’m thinking about moving my single-user instance onto my lab from DO. Either that or moving to a managed Kubernetes cluster in the cloud (that is prohibitively expensive though)
How did you get it working on DigitalOcean? I tried that and it was such a struggle.
Lemmy? Had to patch the docker config (pushed a patch to the main and docs repos already!)
Oh awesome! I’ll try again. Thanks!
You might have to check those repos, I don’t know if the site has been updated.
It hasn’t yet, but I see the changes on the repos.

I have a pretty modest setup. This is just what’s in or on my cabinet rack.
- Old two bay NAS
- New five drive bay server I’m replacing the old NAS with and running local stable diffusion and language models on. I managed to fit my old nVidia 3070 in the rack mount case. There’s no way a card the size of a 3090 would fit
- Some raspberry Pi’s
- Rack mount firewall
- Old Acer monitor, keyboard
- Dumb PDU and an old battery backup that I replaced the batteries on
- An old 802.11ac WiFi router set up as just a WAP, dedicated for home automation
Plan is to set up something like open stack but right now it’s just running unmanaged (orchestrated?) docker containers. I recently learned about ansible so may just automate the docker containers instead of figuring out open stack.
You fit a 3070 in a 5-bay NAS?? That’s impressive! I haven’t done much with ML, but it is a very interesting field of work. I’ve seen people do some pretty crazy things with it!
Ansible is nice, but have you heard of Terraform? Or, if you prefer programming/scripting as opposed to HCL/YAML, there is also Pulumi with lets you use terraform via a few different programming languages. (Ansible is nice though, I used to use it all the time in my lab, and it just works)
Raspberry Pi 4 running home assistant
Intel NUC running frigate and a minecraft server
Custom built PC (i3-10100, 16gb ram, GTX1070 for transcoding. 24tb array with two parity disk, 2x 3tb ssd’s in array for docker, os, etc) with quite a lot of storage running Unraid, which is my media server, backup server, and now my lemmy server.
Network is a mikrotik Hex S router and a netgear gigabit switch, with 1gb fiber internet. 2 Ubiquity AP’s for wifi in the house.
How do you secure your lemmy instance on your home network? I’m interested in doing it but I’m unsure if a reverse proxy would be good enough security. My other public facing services run behind traefik and authelia, but I figure you wouldn’t want lemmy behind any auth for ease of use.
Mostly I am depending on reverse proxy yes.
Otherwise there’s not critical data on the box that could cause a problem for me if the server was owned and everything exfiltrated. Worst case if I had to completely wipe the box it would be annoying but not worse then that.

Box I built around a AMD Ryzen 7 3800X, running Ubuntu 22.04 and a handful of qemu VMs (owncloud, pihole, checkmk, etc…) A hand-me-down qnap I keep threatening to put truenas on but haven’t yet. A couple libre computer (pi alternative) boards. A couple tp-link managed switches.
On my to-do list are to deploy an old Dell mini as an OpnSense box to replace my router.
Hi! I’m Michael and this is my first lemmyverse post!
An old Lenovo thinkstation with 128Gb RAM, 512Gb SSD (x2), 4Tb SATA (x2) and 2Tb SATA for ISOs and backups. Running proxmox with VMs (Windows Server 2022, Home Assistant, Win 11 RDP jumpstation, OPNSense firewall, unifi controller and a Linux general purpose server). I have a dedicated server also running proxmox with a webserver, monitoring server (openitcockpit), meshcentral server.
Raspberry pi 4 as a backup and motioneye server in my garage.
A couple of other raspberry pi 4s doing things… Including 2 at my caravan running HA, Plex and general stuff.
I have a relatively small setup, because of space and cooling constraints, but in that setup:
- Generic server with a Xeon E5-2697 v2, kinda old but it’s still got 12c/24t, and 64 gigs of memory
- Around 40TB of storage space, of which I’m using roughly 1%. I’m not even a datahoarder, I’m just a storage space hoarder.
Everything I self host runs through Proxmox, either as a LXC container or as a RHEL 9 virtual machine. I also have a RasPi running Pi-Hole for ad blocking.
Lots of Proxmox users here! That’s good to see. I’m also running Proxmox after using ESXI in my lab for a few years. Too expensive.
Around 40TB of storage space, of which I’m using roughly 1%. I’m not even a datahoarder, I’m just a storage space hoarder.
Save some for the rest of us, eh?
Sounds like a pretty solid setup!
I’m sure someone from /r/datahoarder is going to be coming along very soon that stored half the internet but I’m sitting at 123TB currently which is already excessive.
Using 80% of that space right now.
Raspberry pi 1: pivpn, pihole Raspberry pi 3: home assistant Raspberry pi 4: some leftover docker containers… move in progress Mini pc (1tb ssd, 20gb ram): arr stack, plex, audiobookshelf, vaultwarden, mealie, photoprism, and some more Synology NAS: 23tb
Documentation is only in my head so far…
Feel this on a spiritual level. Although, I can tell you from experience now that trying to collect all the crap and put it “on paper,” in one place, is almost more painful after the fact lol.
My main machine is an Optiplex 7070 micro (i5 8th gen, 16gb ram, 500gb SSD + 4TB hdd). I also have a pi 3 + 4tb hdd for backups and a pi 4 for wireguard. I have a few other SFF computers, but I don’t have a use for them at the moment.
For services, I host many of the popular ones (nextcloud, portainer, paperless, etc.), but here’s 3 I haven’t seen mentioned a lot:
- komga (ebook reader, works well with tachyiomi on my tablet)
- kitchenowl (recipes and meal scheduling)
- calckey (activitypub server)
Noice, I’ve been meaning to setup something like paperless! Calckey looks like a good solution/alternative to Mastodon with an interesting user interface.
I haven’t heard of the other two, but I’ll definately check out kitchenowl, could use some more meal planning!
Currently running a docker environment from a laptop with the following:
Firefly III - For budgeting
Seafile - For file sync. Was using OneDrive, but since it’s not supported by Linux went with Seafile. Works great!
Keycloak - SSO
Cloudflare Tunnel - For connection to my services from outside without needing to forward ports, and to enforce SSO for platforms that don’t support it.
PHP Apache - Hosting a few small websites
- Server: AMD Ryzen 5 5600, 16gb RAM, Slackware Linux, Nvidia GeForce 210, and something like 5 or 6 TB of space. Mainly used as a fileserver, but it also hosts my Matrix homeserver, some Fossil repos, and some other stuff.
- Desktop: Core i9-10850K, 64gb RAM, Slackware Linux, Nvidia RTX 3080, I think 2-3 TB of space, 4K monitor. It’s a machine I originally got in 2003, and I’ve just continually upgraded myself in chunks it since then. There might be an original screw or cable left in it still - a real Ship of Theseus thing.
- Laptop: AMD Ryzen 3 3200U, 10gb RAM, Slackware Linux, 500mb SSD.
- Laptop 2: PineBook Pro with Slackware Linux.
- Bunch of Rasberry Pi 4s that are sometimes online, all running Slackware Linux. One’s connected to a touchscreen inside of a 3D printed case and powered by a battery.
If you haven’t guessed from the above, I use Slackware Linux 😜
