Inspired by existing slash pages, I think it’s a good idea to have a page for projects one self-hosts. In my case, it’s the following (ordered alphabetically).
Last updated:
AdGuard Home
AdGuard Home runs as a DNS service and allows you to block DNS requests for known trackers and undesired advertising domains, thus limiting tracking and displayed ads on websites.
Baïkal
Baïkal is a lightweight CalDAV+CardDAV server. I only use it for CalDAV, i.e. as my calendar.

BookStack
I use BookStack as my personal wiki software with certain guides I tend to need frequently, but not enough to know them from memory.

CO2MqttSensor
For my CO₂ sensor to pass data to my Home Assistant, I’m running CO2MqttSensor via Docker, which pushes the data via MQTT to Home Assistant.
Dozzle
Dozzle is a nice way to access logs from Docker containers, since the default way in TrueNAS is a little bit clunky.

FreshRSS
I’m still using old school RSS to keep me up-to-date. My Reeder app is being fed from a FreshRSS instance.

Home Assistant
The one-stop-shop for your smart home. For me, it’s a big hub for everything in my smart home. See also my interests regarding smart home.
https://www.home-assistant.io
Immich
Immich can be used as replacement to Apple’s Photos app and iCloud Photos as well as Google Photos. I mainly use it as an additional backup for my images and videos.

Jellyfin
With Jellyfin, you can manage your movies and series. And this is what I do. To view them, however, I use the Infuse app on iPhone and Apple TV, as it’s just better than the official Jellyfin app.

Joplin
As alternative for Apple Notes, I’m using Joplin to create rich markdown notes and synchronize them with all my devices.

Kaneo
Kaneo is a relatively new project management tool, which looks very promising to me. Aside of a really nice looking UI, it has a GitHub integration builtin and is completely free.

Keycloak
In order to have less credentials for my locally hosted stuff, I use Keycloak as access manager wherever possible, usually via OpenID (currently in Immich, Jellyfin, KitchenOwl, Paperless-ngx and Seafile).
https://www.keycloak.org
KitchenOwl
KitchenOwl replaced my highly efficient reminders regarding grocery list and receipts. It was quite surprising to me that I actually stuck with it and it’s very clever. You can automatically add ingredients of your planned meals to the grocery list and KitchenOwl can also import receipts from websites just by using their URL.

LubeLogger
I’m a fan of statistics and already had an app to input when refueling my car. LubeLogger goes a step behind this – while still allowing such input – and adds the ability to also store maintenance and repairs. I’m still not sure whether I really wanted to know how much my car repairs cost … but I do now.
https://lubelogger.com
n8n
Long time, I didn’t know what to do with an automation tool like n8n. For now, it mainly notifies me via Slack about doing updates (manually) for certain systems, but it can be much more powerful than that. So far I just don’t know how it can help me the best way.
https://n8n.io
Netdata
All the self-hosted software usually should run on a server. And since you should want to know how healthy your server is (or multiple of your servers are), you can use Netdata to keep very detailed track of the server itself and all the running processes.
I only use it without registration, which limits the dashboard to five nodes, but if you open up each single server before separately, you can still access them.

Nginx Proxy Manager
Having most of the here mentioned services running on my TrueNAS Community system, I use the Nginx Proxy Manager to allow them being accessibly via custom subdomains. Through the capability of requesting TLS certificates via DNS, too, I even have proper certificates for all of these services via wildcard domain.

Open Archiver
Email archiving is the same as backups: it’s an annoying, but necessary task and you’d immediately regret it when you need it. Open Archiver is a new project that automatically tackles this need and stored emails in EML format as well as building a search index to search through all your emails blazingly fast.
https://openarchiver.com
Paperless-ngx
Since fulltext search through documents is at least broken on my macOS (or is it even available?), I use Paperless-ngx to additionally manage my documents and – most importantly – to search within all the documents.
https://docs.paperless-ngx.com
Seafile
Still my goto regarding self-hosting documents, I mainly use Seafile for an automated way to synchronize my documents as a backup since other variants were not reliable enough in my case (e.g. Syncthing). Additionally, it’s not based on PHP as Nextcloud does, which is suboptimal regarding file uploads and management.

Uptime Kuma
What Netdata is for servers, is Uptime Kuma for websites. It’s a monitoring system allowing you to verify that your website(s) keep online.
https://uptime.kuma.pet
VitePress
I use VitePress as a beautiful way to provide documentations of my WordPress plugins at docs.epiph.yt.
https://vitepress.dev
Wallos
Keeping track of my (few) subscriptions and my regular payments help me to stay far away from any debt. With Wallos, I can add as many subscriptions as I want to and be able to detect how much money I’ve got left.
https://wallosapp.com
WordPress
My main driver for websites is WordPress, as it’s highly flexible and extendable. I use it for many websites and even for work.
