Hi there! This is a video that I made that I'm hoping can act as a beginner friendly entry level point to the world of self hosting and running a homelab. Just thought I'd share in case anyone is interested, and I hope it can be a resource to share with noobies. I don't claim to be an expert at all so I'd also love some feedback. Thanks!

IMO 4k resolution is overkill its way past the optimal between file storage and visual fidelity. Nobody has ever complained about the visual quality of my 720p or 1080p sourced stuff much in the same way most sane people wont notice the difference between FLAC and mp3 on average listening. Bhack in my day we were lucky to get 480p on a square box tv.
