Selfhosted
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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Nextcloud offers practically everything you ask for besides the family tree and even that might be available as a plugin (or "App" as Nextcloud calls tem). Or if you're willing to split photos in a different app, Immich works great.
I'm a noob who just turned to Linux and is planning a similar selfhosting project like OP. What apps/plugins of Nextcloud would you recommend?
Depends heavily on what you need/want. My current installation doesn't have anything extra, mail and calendar with "standard" file storage (with sync agents on desktop/laptop) is well enough on what I use it for as my photos are in Immich instance.
NC is kind of a pain to run and tries to do far to much. I'd pick different software to run than adding addons to nextcloud.
That being said, I add contacts and calendar and use it to sync to my PC/Phone
