Who else is self-hosting AI and apps at home/office?
I've been playing around with this the last couple years, slowly adding to my pile of hardware in the cabinet. Who else? I currently have a Synology NAS, a couple mini-pcs, a gaming rig with GPU.
- Running an ETH node
- Running my own DropBox
- Archiving emails
- Backing up photos
- Dual honed internet w/Starlink
- My own local AI assistant with access to all of it
Who's with me?
100% I love self-hosting all my services, self-hosting means freedom. I'm using old parts from my PC, email, nextcloud, tor node, game servers, and, yes, even AI stuff with the gpu I threw in there.
I self-host everything I can. Unfortunately email is a bit tough these days but I should start archiving it locally. What tools are you using for that?
I haven't done much experimenting with local AI models yet - probably need some newer hardware for that to be worthwhile.
How have you done the last one? I have stuff running on ollama but not with "access to all of it"
