Pihole. DNS-level ad-blocking for my network.
Jellyfin. Movies/TV/Music server with a variety of clients, including a built-in web client, but also AndroidTV/Shield, Roku, Kodi, and more. It's like having a personal Netflix.
Minecraft. The old Java kind. May be leaving for something open-source soon because MS has fucked up the account transitions so badly, and also make buying new copies bizarrely painful, error-prone, and time-consuming—like, I don't know how someone who's not a computer nerd can actually manage to buy and use it, now. It's really bad.
All in Docker on a used workstation, running... IDK, Debian, I think? It hardly matters, because Docker. I don't even mess with Systemd or whatever, I just let Docker figure out what should be started when based on what I set each container to do (restart-unless-stopped, I think? It seems to start them at boot and if they crash, which is all I need).
I hosted PHPNuke and PHPBB on Apache2 out of my basement for years so they'd be contenders for some kind of lifetime total-hours-running-the-service, but that was a long time ago.
