Pi hole
Syncthing(was able to replace Dropbox for my keepass database when they decide to limit number of devices for free tier) - perfect for regularly updated files and backups for photos, etc.
Audiobookshelf - great way to manage audiobooks, also has a nice android app plus can turn each audiobook/series/collection of books into RSS and put in your favorite podcast app
Plex/Jellyfin for media collections

Audiobookshelf is amazing, especially combined with myanonymouse. Killer combination, absolutely recommend.

+1 for syncthing.

If my pc fails right in the middle of some serious work, I will be no longer in despair. I will simply use my second machine to finish it, and repair the main one later.
