I’m already hosting pihole, but i know there’s so much great stuff out there! I want to find some useful things that I can get my hands on. Thanks!

Edit: Thanks all! I’ve got a lil homelab setup going now with Pihole, Jellyfin, Paperless ngx, Yacht and YT-DL. Going to be looking into it more tomorrow, this is so much fun!

    I always compare self hosting to PC gaming: it has some very specific benefits, but you don’t even comprehend, how many downsides you will encounter you cannot even start to anticipate. If one doesn’t like the pain a little bit theses hobbies aren’t any good and I totally understand everyone giving up on them.

      Self hosting is much closer to gaming on Linux than Windows imo, but it’s a great analogy nevertheless.

      I’ve been pc gaming for dozens of years and last few years I have near zero problems.

      Maybe a combination of popular and newish hardware combination and dozen years of technical experience.

      Linux gaming on the other hand… (except maybe deck)
