I self-host RSS-Bridge and an RSS reader.

RSS can replace checking all your subscriptions (youtube, subreddits, etc.) to just one place. I tried a lot of RSS readers but it turns out you'll only like the one you make for yourself, that's why there are so many.

Sorting feeds into categories (I have channels for photography, sports, memes etc.) feels like bliss and is otherwise impossible to do.

You can also quickly vibe code RSS feeds for websites that don't have them.

* Kavita: eBooks and Comics

* Jellyfin: Movies and TV Shows

* Seafile: Hosting my private files

* AdGuard Home: DNS/Ad blocking for all my devices

* Vaultwarden: Passwords

* Immich: For my photos

* Plausible: Analytics

* Audiobookshelf: Audiobooks

* Radarr/Sonarr/Prowlarr + Transmission

* Radicale: Calendar + Contacts

* HedgeDoc: For my Markdown files

LLMs made it REALLY easy to setup a self hosting server and maintaining it. I literally use all of these now daily.

Many of the apps I ended up not using was either because the projects were abandoned or because the web/app UX is just too bad or ugly. For instance I really like Photoprism but Immich has such a better app experience imo.

I recently discovered Arpeggi (client for my Navidrome server) and I have such a good time using it

actual budget: personal finance

vikunja: to-do list and task managemnet

Authelia, Immich, Jellyfin, Fusion, qBittorrent, Memos and Gitea. I think that's all of them.

* PiHole - dns

* Jellyfin - videos and such

* mealie - recipes

* aphorio - my own app for container management, web servers, sockets, and more. It can do 5,000,000 messages person on a single socket roundtrip

* gamevault - like Jellyfin for games

* there is an audio app I wrote that I use daily

* ghost - blogging on my public web server

There are some others I run additionally but those listed above are the main ones

pgweb: web ui for postgres

Kimmi with whisper. Ngl running it on my old laptop is the only thing keeping my thing from breaking apart
