> 2x of docs.paperless-ngx.com/ (one for me and one for my partner) - I scan and destroy most of the letters I get. Ah, interesting. I have been considering finding a solution like that. How do you like it? Are there other alternatives you considered?
I used paperless for a while but ended up just saving pdfs to directories instead. I can find what I need without fancy OCR features by organizing and naming files sensibly. And I am fairly certain this will still work in 40 years, while paperless, or even Linux, might no longer exist.

How do you keep the server hidden from the public?

Joplin server, after my own heart. It’s great lets me setup accts for friends/family. I store all my recipes as markdown and anyone on the server can get my shared notebook full of them

#56- Bind for internal DNS zone
- Pi-hole on 2 Raspberry Pi 4s
- Chrony stratum 1 NTP from GPS on a Pi, my OPNsense router redirects all NTP traffic to it.
- Emby (like Plex)
- Sonarr/Radarr/Prowlarr/Transmission with VPN/SABnbzd for collecting lots of little boxes that fall off trucks.
- Calibre-web
- LibreNMS
- Omada/UniFi controllers
- Home Assistant
- Tailscale
Almost all Dockerized now but it didn’t used to be. One Ubuntu 22.04 server I built with most of it, and another TrueNAS box I also built for file sharing and secondary Bind server.
I have a feeling I’ll be running a lot more after reading the rest of the comments!

Is this for redundancy? How does this work?

I thought I was too hoity-toity for it, but I ended up gradually dockerizing most of the applications on my home server. It’s just so convenient.

#60Me too, it's been a lot of years since I bothered with a home lab, but just recently I put NixOS on a triad of Intel NUCs work was throwing away. They're fanless, quiet and decent enough for Linux with their 16GB memory and 8 cores. Way better than a RasberryPi. Now I can do some experiments I wanted to do, but not use VMs on my laptop. Feels more real when I can see a little stack of servers I can pull the power on.…
For people that aren't getting free boxes from work, you can usually find used micro/tiny form factor Intel machines for around $120. That's more than a Raspberry Pi, but you can get a Core i5-6500T with 8GB of RAM, 256GB SSD, and it'll use around 10 watts at idle (and top out around 50 watts). You'll get an M.2 PCIe 3.0 4x slot and a bay for a 2.5" SATA drive and support for up to 32GB of memory. You can put Proxmox…
> A Raspberry Pi 4B with 8GB of RAM will cost $75
Do you have a link to where I can buy a Raspberry Pi 4B (8GB) for under $150? The cheapest I can find through Amazon was $202.
I bought one before the pandemic (~2019) at Microcenter for, if I recall correctly, $90?
Seriously, if you know where to find one, please share!
