Self-Hosting Ideas for a Spare Raspberry Pi

A running list of services that earn their RAM on a small home server.

• Uptime Kuma — lightweight status monitoring with a nice UI
• Syncthing — folder sync without a cloud middleman
• Pi-hole — network-wide ad blocking

• Immich — self-hosted photos, the current favorite to replace cloud albums
• Paperless-ngx — scan once, find forever

• A full Nextcloud instance. It worked, but I only ever used two features.
