  • I agree with this. I’m running CasaOS on a Pi4. Having the initial ease of one click installs gives you a great start, then you’ll start to find that you need to manage some port assignments, then you’ll start learning about Docker environment variables, then you’ll be managing custom installs.

    Awesome-Selfhosted is a great resource. Just browse and try something interesting.

    My own recent journey went like this:

    Run AdGuard Add DokuWiki, Navidrome, Mealie Set up Cloudflare Tunnels Add FreshRSS, Homer, SearchXNG

    I also have Nextcloud on a VPS, but the fun is on the Pi.



  • Since it’s winter and I mostly don’t want to leave my house, I busted out an unused Raspberry Pi 4b a couple weeks ago. Started with CasaOS and AdGuard. Have now added a few other services including Navidrome to serve up a lot of local-area music for myself and friends. Got a Cloudflare tunnel set up, then some authentication through CF as well. And finally secured a static IP from my ISP. This is the farthest along I’ve ever gotten with any of this and it’s been going great. Nearly every hurdle I’ve encountered I’ve been able to work through.

    Two things causing me grief today though:

    1. I also have Nextcloud hosted on a VPS and I cannot get to the point of running occ commands. First it wasn’t found, then no php cli, then just errors. I gave up.

    2. I’m using Homer because it’s just so simple, but the theming and CSS is driving me nuts. Sure, I can change colors, but will this little bar in the neon theme change from 4em to 100% for me? NOPE. Override fonts? Nosir. All good though.
