Comment on **How** should I properly document my homelab?

  The good thing about YOUR homelab is that YOU’RE taking notes solely for YOURSELF and only YOU know how YOU work and how YOU organize YOUR thoughts.

  Normally I’d agree, in that it’s not some corporate production environment, but also I personally want to document my self hosted setup in a kind of document that can at least be accessed and understood by my closest family, if something were to happen to me.

  Convincing them to archive stuff on my Nextcloud instance for example, and them losing access because I’m not around, temporarily or permanently, would spoil the whole point of the endeavor.

    I‘m a realist in that regard, once I am gone all my hard work will go to shit in 6-12 months no matter how much I train an instruct my friends and family. They just don’t care enough.

  I save all my credentials in Bitwarden/Vaultwarden

  Yeah, I don’t put key phrases, passwords, etc in my notes.
