Hey, I was thinking about getting a VPS and hosting my own single user Lemmy instance. I am trying to think of other things to host. I already have some old hardware running unRAID with Plex, the *arrs, Kavita and home assistant. This is pushing my hardware to the limit but I still want to mess around with some self hosted things. Is there anything you would rather host on a rented server as opposed to a server sitting at your home?
The closest I’ve gotten to playing with Docker is Distrobox while trying out Fedora Silverblue or openSUSE MicroOS, where most of the Docker functions are abstracted away. If I need something on my LAN where Docker is the best/only option, then yeah, I’d definitely dig into it.
My approach to tech in general is a combination of just-in-time learning & you-ain’t-gonna-need-it, so… [shrugs]
