I was already planning on moving over to Linux, and can get around enough. This is amazing info, as I've moved more into self hosting and didn't even realize that was an option. Definitely something to look into once I find a permanent residence. Thank you!
You're welcome, feel free to ask any questions once you get there
You are awesome friend! It won't be anytime soon. We lost our place to a fire and are getting by in motels for now. Everyone survived and a lot more than expected was salvageable, so we keep moving forward.
At some point I'll throw my old parts together into a Linux server. I was just hosting everything on my main rig, which obviously is not ideal. I've seen a bit of discussion on both sides of docker, do you have any input one way or the other?
Ah, I've generally run my VPN primary exit node in a public cloud infrastructure host like Digital Ocean or AWS in order to provide a separate public IP from the rest of my stuff, and not give out my home IP to public Wi-Fi and such.
I like docker, as long as you use a good orchestration tool it's a good way to declaratively define what should be running on your server, using a compose file or similar. There are a lot of benefits to the overhead of learning it, including running multiple instances of the same service on one machine without conflicts, and the ability to force your hosted apps to store all of their data in nice neat packages you can easily back up with something like Duplicity or Volumerize.
I actually run my containers on a small kubernetes cluster using VMs running k3s atop Proxmox, with persistence handled by a hyperconverged ceph cluster. All probably very overkill but it's fun to play with and performs incredibly. Most folks can get away with a single server running containers with simple
docker compose.Thank you so much for the info. I love learning
