With all this migration i’ve been inspired to start self hosting some services.

I am looking for a mini pc to ideally run linux and host a media server with radarr and sonarr, pihole and some other stuff as i start getting more into self hosting.

Any recommendations / experiences that you can give? Or some general guidelines on what i should look for or things to avoid.

Thank you!!

    I use a headless Raspberry Pi 4 connected via USB to an external 2TB SSD and host

    • Nextcloud
    • Pihole w/Unbound
    • Transmission
    • Jellyfin
    • Webmin
    • Apache webserver with a personal static webpage
    • Soon to host my own Lemmy instance

      A colleague at work said he was running a Raspberry Pi but in the end had to move to a more powerful system because he needed more power. AFAIK he’s use case is lighter than what i plan so i thought it wasn’t a viable solution. What you describe sounds very nice, especially because of the price of the Pi.

      Would love to hear more people’s experiences with this setup.
