Hardware:
I run most of my services via Docker but also in their own LXCs on Proxmox:
Next thing I want to set up would be arcane and maybe ansible, audio-bookshelf, and someday some monitoring.
I access my services only via NetBird when I am out and about.
The biggest flaw in my setup as for now is that I only have one device that’s a single point of failure. Since I have remote backups that’s okayish atm. In the future I would try to get ahold of more hardware and separate things out. For someone who just wanted to try things out a little I got my self kind of deep into it haha Performance vice its enough for me as a single user
Also: If anyone has any suggestions what I could do with my Oracle free tier VPS, besides running a Minecraft server, I would be happy to hear ideas :)
Welcome! Good to meet you. Looks like you are well on the selfhosting journey.
I won’t go back. It’s to addicting and I learn so much :)
I've had a computer in front of me since the mid 70s with the Altair. Now, don't mistake time with skill, but, the learning aspect is what I dig the most.
Nice to know, that I possibly won’t run out of learning material then :D
I've had a computer in front of me since the mid 70s and I'm quite certain I have only barely scratched the surface of what there is to learn.
