not myself, but my stepdad tried it with 2 decades of IT and linux sysadmin experience.

basically, it is great if you want to host like 2 or 3 standalone services on a pi to get into understanding how the basics of selfhosting work, but for homelabs and deep customization, you’re better off with docker compose on debian/ubuntu server.

by now i use nextcloud for everything except files. i do use it a lot for e.g. contacts, calendar, etc.

sshfs is simply a godsend for true instant easy multidevice file access

My home, my grave in my ass

thx, fixed the typo, dam phone keyboards being so small

in german that room is just called “das klo” (the toilet)

nowadays, might be worth looking into nix flakes

tons of super performant nextcloud flakes being uploaded to github, difficulty is understanding nix, but it’s worth it
