    The main thing I self-host (at home, as opposed to in the cloud) these days is Ollama. I did build a big, beefy server with an AMD RX 7090XTX card a couple of years ago for AI experimenting and the main thing I do with it lately is run Ollama for local models.

    I self-host a bunch of other stuff (bugzilla, mediawiki, suitecrm, apache roller, etc) but all that stuff is on VPS's from OVH.

    Yes, it was probably one of my better decisions and investments in the past years. I run a ton of things I never would have paid to run in the cloud and feel in control. I've even started making money from one of the projects.

    Tons of small things feel nice, taking notes and I don't have to use Google Docs if I don't want. Watching a movie from my home media center etc

    I've never been very clear what a "homelab" actually is. Anyone care to offer a definitin or description?
