My users interface with my server via plex, smb and Nextcloud.

The guts are pretty complicated but from my users' point of view it's pretty simple.

You should think about what services you plan to offer and go from there.

Be aware that none of the off the shelf products have a good reputation for being secure when providing services outside your network which is when you may want stuff like Nextcloud.

Seeding 1 for 1 isn't what they're looking for in users as a general rule, they're looking for people who will seed forever.

You're probably more likely to meet people who have access to those sites in self hosting communities where they can share with friends who they know have the infrastructure to benefit those communities.

128TB.

My main hypervisor is proxmox which runs an unraid vm with the iGPU passed through to accelerate PLEX and disk controllers to manage the storage. I also have 2 Endeavour OS VMs, one that runs Thunderbird and Insync. Another that has a quadro p2000 passed through to tinker with. I also have a homeassistant vm and a proxmox CT running docker.

I'm working up to transitioning the dockers on unraid to a proxmox container but at the same time if it's not broke why fix it.

I also want to mess with networking by putting in OPNsense or pfsense and routing some traffic through a vps.

I'm on a dynamic ip and I've been considering doing this just to stop my remote services from being glitchy whenever the ip changes.

But I need to setup pfsense or OPNsense first so I can route everything properly.

I'm excited to see what happens, a significant amount of knowledge is moving to a much more democratic platform. If the people who can give useful answers to questions are here others will end up moving here to get access to that.

I know that I'm going to make an effort to help make this place worth using.
