What are YOU self-hosting? (lemmy.world)

A simple question to this community, what are you self-hosting? It's probably fun to hear from each-other what services we are running.

Please mention at least the service (e.g. e-mail) and the software (e.g. postfix). Extra bonus points for also mentioning the OS and/or hardware (e.g. Linux Distribution, raspberry pi, etc) you are running on.

I've been running Arch Linux on a Gigabyte Brix with two USB HDDs for... years now. At least 8. On and off, there were several services, but mostly, this device is meant to host

NFS and SMB file shares
syncthing, because I can't get my Macbook to use the network shares in a performant way
plex media server
nginx with mariadb for a privately hosted database of a German TV show (Tatort) and also a self-made expense tracker
paperless-ngx for electronic document management
traefik as a reverse proxy
heimdall to remind me what's there :)
a couple statically generated web sites
changedetection.io to check some websites for changes
watchtower to at least notify me when new docker images are available
portainer to have kind of a dashboard for all services
youtube-dl-material
dokuwiki as a second brain

Since Arch Linux is rolling, it sometimes simply breaks after an update. But since the services have gotten more critical for me over time (especially plex :) ) I plan on putting some of the services to a host in the cloud behind a WireGuard VPN. Also, the Brix should be re-installed with Ubuntu or Debian some day.
