What webapps do you selfhost that aren't media/game servers? (lemm.ee)

Since selfhosted clouds seem to be the most common thing ppl host, i'm wondering what else ppl here are selfhosting. Is anyone making use of something like excalidraw in the workplace? Curious about what apps that would be useful to always access over the web that aren't mediaservers.

Mumble and Wireguard

Some of my friends are heading back to mumble because discord is getting too bloated with useless features.

Wireguard is to be able to access my local network when I am away.

Check out Tailscale. It uses Wireguard under the hood, but it's magic.

Wireguard is quite magic itself

God stop pushing tailscale. It's just abstraction on top of wireguard. Those of us who knows how VPNs work don't want a third party involved in our routing.

I hear about people wanting alternatives to discord though I never got into using it too much personally, but does anyone know about whether or not Revolt chat is a good open-source self-hostable solution?

I have tried and their documentation is too complex and incomplete for self hosting. Right now, for communication, I have mumble for VoIP and ngircd as an irc server.

It pretty much covers 80% of discord use case. I am looking for something that support video chat/screen sharing. Synapse is honestly not bad at all. But it's too power hungry for my liking. I wish Jitsi could have better ux for average consumer. It feels too business like.

I've been testing MatterMost for a few days.

It's closer to Slack than Discord but has most of the same features.

Wireguard + adguard means home ad blocking anywhere I want it.

Or WireGuard + PiHole
