@itsfoss i have tried hosting a website but home connections are not reliable.

@itsfoss i seed torrents, does that count?

@itsfoss Not desktop, but on server, like a regular #HomeLab

@itsfoss
#radicale for contacts and calendar.

@itsfoss no all on a server tho.

@itsfoss I don't "self-host" on my Linux desktop. I self-host on my Linux server which runs the stable version of Debian. I run Debian testing on my desktop.

@itsfoss Temporarily until I'm confident the container is tweaked right and then I push to my server.

I'm not on super high end equipment here, running a server on my desktop stops it from doing some desktop things tolerably well.

@itsfoss My hopes and dreams

@itsfoss No. My desktop consumes too much power even in idle (AMD). Also, I don't want things at home accessible from internet - there is always a security issue when you don't have time to update.

@itsfoss sometime for testing purposes

@itsfoss I don't know if it counts but I have Windows 10 (sic) with Virtualbox and about 30 VMs most of them Linux with their own servers (web, MySQL, NFS, Zabbix, VPN, firewall etc) and several virtual networks. Nested virtual servers with KVM and Docker...
It's my test and POC environment. #homelab

@itsfoss would like to host dicker images to get Software that don't have desktop versions, with no Internet connection.

@itsfoss not reliable

@itsfoss some LAN gaming servers occasuionally, mainly Invidious for myself

@itsfoss Syncthing, Ollama, Universal Media Server. Soon building home server to move those apps there and other stuff like a pastebin.

@itsfoss Why should I? My desktop is offline at least 20 hours per day. Not very user friendly 😅

@itsfoss media to watch in my living room TV.

@itsfoss No, only on my home lab :)

@itsfoss

Several LXC containers running various services, each compartmentalized into its own container instance.

Among them a PostgreSQL DB, an IMAP/SMTP server, Asterisk, which connects to my landline. Collectd to get performance/throughput data from what's on the network, the (OpenWrt) router in particular.

HTTP/FTP server containers for external access I only launch when needed.

@itsfoss 🐧 A simple ```python -m http.server ./``` (I think it was), just so I can instantly see changes made to my local web dev, w/o needing to push to GH pages (maybe gitlab/cloudflare in future). Otherwise not, since I always suspend it when I'm not actively using it, so it can't host anything permanent.

@itsfoss My desktop runs under proxmox with GPU passthrough. So I self host my desktop on my desktop.
