A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Self-GPT: Open WebUI + Ollama = Self Hosted ChatGPT (sh.itjust.works)

Instructions here: https://github.com/ghobs91/Self-GPT

If you’ve ever wanted a ChatGPT-style assistant but fully self-hosted and open source, Self-GPT is a handy script that bundles Open WebUI (chat interface front end) with Ollama (LLM backend).

  • Privacy & Control: Unlike ChatGPT, everything runs locally, so your data stays with you—great for those concerned about data privacy.
  • Cost: Once set up, self-hosting avoids monthly subscription fees. You’ll need decent hardware (ideally a GPU), but there’s a range of model sizes to fit different setups.
  • Flexibility: Open WebUI and Ollama support multiple models and let you switch between them easily, so you’re not locked into one provider.

What are your PC specifications for running Ollama3.1:70B smoothly?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I wish I could. I have an RTX 3060 12GB, I run mostly llama3.1 8B versions in fp8, at 30-35 tokens/s.

I can confirm that it does not run (at least not smoothly) with an Nvidia 4080 12Gb. However, gemma2:27B runs pretty well. Do you think if we add another graphical card, a modest one, maybe the llama3.1:70B could run?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

I have no idea if ollama can handle multi-GPU. The 70B in it's q2_k quantized form requires already 26GB of memory, so you would need at least that to run it well and that would only imply it could be entirely run on GPU, which is the best case scenario, but not at what speed.

I know some people with apple silicon who have enough memory to run the 70B model and for them it runs fast enough to be usable. You may be able to find more info about it online.

No, but you can run Qwen 2.5 34B with 24GB total.

Host it in TabbyAPI instead of ollama too. Use its native tensor parallelism and Q4 cache, it will fly.
