My Ultimate Self-hosting Setup (codecaptured.com)

Hey y'all, I know getting a setup that feels "right" can be a process. We all have different goals, tech preferences, etc.

I wanted to a share my blog post walking through how I finally built a setup that I can just be happy with and use. It goes over my goals, requirements, tech choices, layout, and some specific problems I've resolved.

Where I've landed of course isn't where everyone else will, but I hope it can serve as a good reference. I’ve really benefited from the content and software folks have freely shared, and hope I can continue that and help others.

Happy to answer questions!

I'm a lifelong Linux user (or since 1999, so half my life), but I was a mixed mac and windows user before that. Anyway, I understand the reluctance you're facing.

You don't need to endanger any part of your current experience to start self hosting, you can just start adding to it. The stakes can be very low if you want to learn that way.
