> Mint -> Maybe

I don't know what these are, but how am I supposed to google these words and get the correct results?

I currently self-host these infra and apps:

  - technitium DNS
  - Traefik
  - Cerbot
  - Home assistant
  - samba file shares
  - Gerbera media server
  - Jellyfin
  - Gitlab
  - Grafana / influxdb (for telegraf server monitoring + esphome  sensors)
  - Photoprism
  - Syncthing
  - Taiga
  - Vaultwarden
  - offlineimap sync from gmail

I've been thinking about Nextcloud as well, but it seems a bit heavy-handed and wants control over my docker daemon, which I am not sure about.

I googled "mint maybe app" and got information and articles about the two right away, so maybe you just need to train your Google fu a bit more ;). Either way though, Maybe.co, the Mint finance app alternative, is nowhere near ready for production, they are going through a rewrite right now.

What do you self host with? I've been using Coolify on Hetzner VPS but I've been looking into Dokploy recently, the UI is much faster.

I host on an old i5 dell optiplex and usb raid enclosure i keep in the cupboard under the stairs. It's mostly for making the storage available to my other devices. It's also a tailscale node.

Ah OK, how does the IP addressing work? Can you have users hit your residential IP and be fine with your ISP?

I'm the only user really, but yes, some services are available on a public DNS. Most of them are only on the local network though. Never had any issues with inbound traffic on my residential connection.

I'm like you but have somehow different set

- AdguardHome

- Traefik - Cloudflare tunnels

- Home Assistant

- onedev (Nice simple one user git host)

- Immich

- Vaultwarden

- Coder

- IT-tools

- Linkding

- Clibre/Calibre Web

- Bookstack

- Nextcloud

- Memos

- Stirling-PDF

- FireFox Sync (Yes you can do that! [1] )

- INVIDIOUS (I can't handle Youtube vanilla)

And I agree that nextcloud is somehow heavy but it is the easiest solution. I use it mainly to backup my research activity (slides, books ..etc) and mainly using webdav features to sync zotero documents.
