I am finally making the push to self host everything I possibly can and leave as many cloud services as I can.

I have years of linux server admin experience so this is not a technical post, more of an attempt to get some crowd wisdom on a complex migration.

I have a plan and have identified services i would like to implement. Take it as given that the hardware I have can handle all this. But it is a lot so it won’t happen at once.

I would appreciate thoughts about the order in which to implement services. Install is only phase one, migration of existing data and shaking everything down to test stability is also time consuming. So any insights, especially on services that might present extra challenges when I start to add my own data, or dependencies I haven’t thought of.

The list order is not significant yet, but I would like to have an incremental plan. Those marked with * are already running and hosting my data locally with no issues.

Thanks in advance.

Base system

  • Proxmox VE 8.3
    • ZFS for a time-machine like backup to a local hdd
    • Docker VM with containers
      • Home Assistant *
      • Esphome *
      • Paperless-ngx *
      • Photo Prism
      • Firefly III
      • Jellyfin
      • Gitea
      • Authelia
      • Vaultwarden
      • Radicale
      • Prometheus
      • Grafana

    May I ask why you’d want to selfhost bitwarden if the free hosted version is almost as good aside from the few unimportant paid perks?

        But you mention having vaultwarden and not connecting it to authentik. So you basically have bitwarden selfhosted.

          Yes, but I don’t plan to host bitwarden. I was referring to op’s question regarding vaultwarden+auth. Sorry, I think I can’t follow you

            No, but Vaultwarden is the one thing I don’t even try to connect to authentik

            Implying you have it deployed in active use, no?
