So, I am soon going to finally set up my first home server. Exams are not that far away, I am motivated as shit, my first own domain is bought and I want to level up my sysadmin skills.

Currently my plans look like this:

  • Host Jellyfin
  • Host my own NAS
  • Some form of hosted musicstreaming integration with my local music
  • Automate Backups and push them on my server
  • make all of the above things available where ever I want using my own self hosted domain.
  • run my own dns

In the long term I also want to be able to host my own webapps, since I will soon start to develop one for someone.

Now I want to know what suggestions do you have, for stuff thats really cool and that I can selfhost.

Edit: thanks for all the replies. Definitely going to look into this.

I’m wondering if Android has something nicer looking. Plex has PlexAmp which looks great, Emby’s built in music player in their main app looks terrific, FinAmp is like aestheticslly like the stock standard JellyFin app which is awful.

Discrete in iOS at least is just an attempt at looking like a carbon copy of Apple Music. There must be some good looking g Jellyfin music player on Android.

Maybe https://www.symfonium.app/
