    I have a 10 year old CPU running Intel i3 (don’t know what generation) with 12GB of ram, few HDSs (8TB, 2TB and 1TB) , SSD(128GB) for Debian.

    The motherboard has a VGA and I don’t have any VGA display with me. So if anything goes wrong at reboot, I mostly do guesswork and resolve it.

    The PSU fan is whining and hanging on to its life.

    I am an atheist , but I pray to God for my PSUs life.

    Not sure if I’m late on the draw here, but:

    Debian 12 “Bookworm” Ancient 2007 Quad Core Intel Q6600 ASUS P5N-T Deluxe Motherboard 8 GB RAM 64GB SSD for the OS and a few applications 6x2TB Laptop HDDs in RAID 5 - scavenged from electronics scrap All wrapped up in a spare full tower I had from an old build

    For now, the few services I have running are local network only. They are simply a few Docker containers running PiHole and Portainer. The RAID array is set up as a network share via SMB for my various personal devices to dump files to.

    I am very new to the whole self-hosted thing and enjoying learning. Really, new to Linux, servers, networking, etc. Would love to hear some recommendations on what services I should look into, resources for learning more, critiques, etc. So far, browsing topics on here has been pretty helpful.

    • Server - Desktop Tower

      • Build - Intel server board & CPU based on old serverbuild naskiller guide
        • OS on SSD
        • ZFS ON 8 6TB DRIVES, YIELDING ~36TB of storage, recoverable with up to two failed drives
      • Runs (via docker)
        • Navidrome (webui used daily @ work, dsub on phone, feishin on desktop)
        • Jellyfin (used almost exclusively locally on my TV, occasionally to watch with friends on web)
        • Nextcloud (used occasionally, mostly backs up password files, etc or to share. Thinking about replacing.)
        • QBitTorrent with glutun VPN
        • Audiobookshelf - used frequently for audiobooks. Occasionally for podcasts. Often more convenient to use antennapod/pocket casts on phone for active podcasts)
        • Kavitas - used seldom. Thinking about stopping. I like using obps on my rooted kindle to access my library.
        • Changedetection.io -watch some sites for new products, etc
        • Kiwix (local wikipedia copy I use shortcuts in FF locally to search for things)
        • Homepage (local links I use on local machines to my services)

    • Raspberry pi

      • Adguard home & unbound - block most garbage for any traffic from my home

    Thoughts - I’m considering downsizing. I don’t really need all that much space, and it can be a headache at times. With drive replacement costs on top of power (~$320 a year) I consider either going to a vps or downsizing to what could run on a small compute like the n100 or a raspberry pi5, etc.

    It’s a work in progress, but https://wiki.gardiol.org (which is OFC self-hosted)

    Anyway, beefy HP laptop with 32gb ram and Xeon CPU to run all services. 3 RAID-1 (Linux sw raid) usb3 volumes to host all services and data.

    Two isp’s: Vodafone FVA 5G (data capped) for general navigation and Fastweb FTTC (low speed but uncapped) for backup access and torrent/Usenet downloads.

    Gentoo Linux all the way and podman, but as much limited as possible: only immich (that’s impossible to host on bare metal due to devs questionable choices).

    Services: WebDAV/webcal/etc wiki, more stuff, arrs, immich, podfetch, and a few more.

    All behind nginx reverse proxy.

    99% bare metal.

              OKey, so that’s a bit concerning… I’d love to get my hand on this “bin” file, I cannot reproduce the issue on my side… Also the site should be HTTPS only. I had a bug with caching recently that showed the ActivityPub data instead of the blog post, could it be that ? Are you on mobile, and the browser cannot show JSON data properly so it tries to download it with a weird name ?

    HDMI cable straight to the living room Smart TV (which is not connected to the internet).

    Main router is flashed with OpenWrt and running DNS adblocker. Ethernet running to 2nd router upstairs and to main PC. Small WiFi repeater with ethernet in the basement. It’s not a huge house, but it does have old thick walls which are terrible for WiFi propogation.
