What are YOU self-hosting?

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.

My lemmy instance :)

I used to self-host email with email and postfix, but I gave up with the amount of spam coming my way and moved to Proton

I have considered renting a VPS and giving it a go as well! (Is that still considered selfhosting?)

Do you think all the federated content will require a ton of storage eventually? I can imagine that I will need beefier hardware as well as my instance grows, even if I’m the only user. Would love to hear about your experience.

Mine is actually also a VPS, my electricity is too unstable to host at home :')

It's pretty light though, 2GB RAM and 2vCPUs and about 10GB of space. It shot up to 9.5GB over a few days as people added more communities, then slowed down a lot. We have ~60 users as of now
