My usage varies from service to service, but unless I've either found a replacement or completely stopped using it, I keep all of them (including the ones I never really use) ready to go, maybe with the container stopped. So far I've only removed 2 services, both because there were better alternatives for me.
If I see something interesting, I'll note it and try to get it up later. Sometimes the service keeps spitting out errors, in which case I'll just attempt again later if I still find the service to be worthy.
Turns out I have quite a lot of stuff, and yet I'm here thinking I barely have anything! Until now:
- Nextcloud
- Kitchenowl (grocery lists)
- Kavita (ebook manager)
- Grist (spreadsheets that are databases I guess?)
- Sharry (file sharing)
- Changedetection.io
- A ghost blog
- Bookstack (like a manual on managing the server)
- Portainer (manage containers from a webui)
- Diun (notifies when an update is released for a container. Doesn't have a webui)
- Homepage dashboard (basically a webpage that shows me my selfhosted services)
All these are running inside Docker containers, on an ancient laptop with a single cpu core and 3 gigs of RAM.
Excited to discover more things to host on that little pretty big guy (somehow its still running well)!
