I just came here to post the same thing! I'd definitely want to see Homebridge.

[T6beats]

Jellyfin please.  Thank you

Sonarr, Radarr,  home assistant, frigate, transmission, some apps fore backups and cloud services sync

[Vidic]

Not sure if this is the best place, but not just app support, but full app support like hardware passthrough for GPU transcoding and whatnot.  if it's not already there that is.

[Audox]

Sonarr, Radarr, Ombi or Overseerr, Sabnzbd and Tautulli please 🙏🏻

• Home Assistant Server
• Traefik
• PiHole
• TVHeadend
• Antennas (to use TVHeadend with Plex)
• Cloudflare
• Authelia (all apps tied together with a neat SSO)
• Heimdall or Organizr
• Wireguard
• Calibre and Calibre-web
• NZBGet
• Readarr
• Bazarr
• qBittorrent
• Sonarr (more than one instance)
• Radarr (more than one instance)
• Ombi
• the open source versions from Synologys Photos, Calendar, Drive, Contacts, Download Station, File Station, Surveillance Station, Hyper Backup
• a way to monitor all the things and get messages on the phone

i would like to get away from synologys restricted hardware and xpenologys fear for updates

i cant edit my post anymore...

• Unbound (to use as a Hyperlocal DNS - Pihole combo) - kuketz-blog.de for reference
• GPU passthrough for Plex
• local AI support

Also support for Ollama local AI with Nividia GPU support would be great.

Upvoting this. I definitely think that more and more people will want to host their AI locally and while it is already simple with ollama (shout out to the ollama contributors) how you then have that always on, and integrated into other applications blocks people. The home lab seems like a natural place for this when you have a gpu

Nextcloud would be great to have. I’m looking for an alternative to Google Workspace and it seems like Nextcloud might be a good option.

I got NextCloud fully working 100% on my setup. It has fully replaced DropBox for me. I'd love to see this be available as an app on HexOS. Below is a list of things I had to do that I'm still mentally recovering from in order to get things running.
 

My current config:
PowerShell script via Task Scheduler updates DNS A record in CloudFlare
nextcloud.mydomain.com - DNS managed through CloudFlare with "strict" mode (all traffic is upgraded to HTTPS)
port 80 and 443 traffic is forwarded to my HTPC physical computer by the internet router
HTPC is a Windows 11 Pro desktop computer
HTPC is running XAMPP Apache server
HTPC is running VMWare Workstation
TrueNas Scale is running on VMWare Workstation on HTPC
TrueNas Scale runs IMMICH and NextCloud as an "App"
Apache Server is configured to reverse-proxy the CloudFlare HTTPS-force-upgraded traffic of nextcloud.mydomain.com to the NextCloud "App" on TrueNas.
Used VIM (apt-get install VIM) from the shell of NextCloud - VIM is required to open "config.php" from the shell where you specify trusted domains array of variables including the IP of HTPC as well as nextcloud.mydomain.com (don't forget to save after you made the changes)
Added OVERWRITEPROTOCOL="https" and overwrite.cli.url="https://nextcloud.mydomain.com" TrueNas-->NextCloud-->Edit-->"Additional Environmental Variables"
Added my network shares (running off StableBit DrivePool - windows SMB shares) as "Additional Storage" under NextCloud.
Configured "External Storage" to take advantage of my SMB shares (I am only using TrueNas Scale to run Nextcloud because there's no native Windows app for it, I don't intend to store anything on the TrueNas-hosted volumes)
(Docker Desktop for Windows is a steaming pile of garbage that has more memory leaks than a sieve and BSODs any system if you let it run long enough with something running, notably IMMICH or PhotoPrism. I gave up on Docker Desktop, I will not run Linux so "Apps" on TrueNas Scale is the next option, but limiting as stuff does not persist, specifically I need to do "apt-get install ffmpeg" each and every time there's an update to the app because it recompiles the docker image and nukes ffmpeg.)

TLDR: you can have your cake and eat it too, it just requires sacrificing 3-4 months worth of your sanity to Google and Chat-GPT your way over all the technical hurdles. HTTPS-encrypted traffic courtesy of CloudFlare using your own domain pointing to your own physical machine. And yes it also works on your phone seamlessly as good as DropBox does. It works on LAN, it works on WAN.

Note: being forced to do things in the shell of an app on TrueNas Scale is something that is reserved for the truly masochistic types. Unfortunately for at least a couple of steps it's 100% required (setting up trusted proxies and re-installing ffmpeg after every recompile).

something more likely to be for the subscription tier: acting as webhook reverse proxy

If you are using other subscription-requiring features then this low-hanging fruit would be nice as well.

[saladface3]

Not sure if others have mentioned this already, but zerotier is super important, especially for installations like mine. Most large ISPs in India either charge for port forwarding or straight-up don't allow it, living in double-NAT situation turns home servers useless without zerotier. 

Note: If anyone can suggest a faster solution that would be much appreciated (zerotier is fine but highly throttled)

I want to self host llms, instead of using proprietary options, so any apps that can help?

[Haldemar]

Well, I guess I fall in your target group. The second I saw this on LTT, I bought a license. Not because of Linus, be what he said this would be. A simple to use for non IT people, which is me. 
 

Here is my list of wishes to see in the near future:

* some torrent client or something to download torrents

* automation tools for torrent (prowler or whatever they are called)

* vpn tools (like set it up in hex and It automatically gets applied to all the apps and stuff, I never got this to work on my truenas with qtorrent)

* plex (already there! Nice!)

* photo backup for iPhones (seems to be there already, nice!) 

* accessing nas from external location

* maybe home automation stuff.. could be fun for the future. 
 

That’s all I guess. 
 

exited to try this out!!

In my current NAS setup I also run some developer applications (such as MariaDB and Redis), these are always mostly supported as docker images. Would be great to have one click apps for things like that, as it was quite a pain on TrueNAS

[dhay]

For start, TAILSCALE. That's a must. Would love Resilio Sync too, to replace/complement Dropbox/OneDrive/etc support. And of course, to go with Plex, all the *arr" collection

Nextcloud would be a nobrainer

[CZK]

1. Frigate NVR

2. Tailscale

3. turnkey one click reverse proxy by cloud flare

4. VPN-less remote access 

[mintaka]

A password manager would be great. For example vaultwarden.

I also love actualbudget and run it currently in a raspberry pi. Would be nice to move it to the NAS and get rid of one system 😄

[mintaka]

Are there any plans to open the app store for community maintained apps? I believe, this would help support the demand. And a simple classification system would then help users filter through them.

[nightpoison]

Nextcloud
Gitlab
bitwarden
plex
Unifi Controller
Home Assistant
OneDrive
GoogleDrive

[Eztebe]

• Cloudron
• Kasm Workspace CE
• Obsidian
• Homepage
• code-Server
• Krusader
• Redis
• postgresql
• Web-check

Everything: Hypothetically voidtools' Everything should work for the client PCs connecting to the NAS but there are bound to be some problems.  Native support for Everything on HEXOS would make searching the array on the host much more expedient especially if using HDDs.
