1 day ago@Bonifratz @h333d Before I begun this self-hosting journey, I hosted Pi-Hole on a docker container on my PC (was Manjaro KDE that time I think). Then, I learnt how to set up AdGuardHome on a VM (on both Manjaro and Arch iirc), using virt-manager and KVM. Now, I’m using an old laptop to host Proxmox and some services like AdGuardHome, Prometheus, Grafana, Uptime Kuma, and a Debian-made game server customized by myself. I had help of a colleague to begin the Proxmox journey.
@Bonifratz @h333d It isn’t easy, but it’s so worth the effort, and I just begun the Proxmox journey and I have plenty of things to learn!
Since this is a complex subject, you need to take your time and don’t hurry the learning process. Begin with baby steps, and hosting services restricted to a LAN, just to be safe. When you are comfortable (after some weeks or months), think about sharing a service to the public, if possible, and what you have to do to properly secure your devices and network!
