What is a service you host you never knew you needed? (k.fe.derate.me)

I think everybody on here is constantly keeping an eye out for what to host next. Sometimes you spinup something which chugs along nicely but sometimes you find out you've been missing out.

For me it's not very refreshing or new: Paperless-ngx. Never thought I would add all my administration to it. But it's great. I probably can't find the thing I need, but I should have a record of every mail or letter I've gotten. Close second is Wanderer. But I would like to have a little bit more features like adding recorded routes to view speed and compare with previous walks. But that's not what it is intended for.

What is that service for you?

I think there one I never expected would be Kitchenowl. Shopping list, recipe list, planner for food, expenses... very useful for a joined household.

Been using anytype.io (self-hosted) for a month now and it has been amazing.

Using it as a journal, bookmark manager, general note taking, etc...

I host Immich, Jellyfin , readeef, and open-webui for myself. From those, Immich is definitely the unlikely hero of the bunch

IIRC immich is like a google photos replacement. I use nextcloud for that on android but it's not so simple on ios. How's immich for ios, do uploads work automatically in the background? How's performance?

Background backup works mostly ok. There are times where I need to go to the backup view for it to get going, but those are not that common. The performance is excellent so far

Immich, SearXNG, FreshRSS
