Comment on **How** should I properly document my homelab?
irmadlad@lemmy.world 21 hours agoLOL, well I’m single tho I’ve known my ladyfriend for over 40 years. I offered to set up a server at her house, and connect the two, but she has no interest rifling through all my lab for anything of interest in the case of my passing.

I’m happily married with a kid, and we recently went through the estate planning process. When I brought up IP stuff and digital properties, their advice was pretty much “Hmm… you should pick someone who understands what you’re talking about, get their approval in advance, and then add them as your legacy contacts and document the heck out of everything”. Realistically nobody is going to want my GitHub stuff or anything like that, but I would like my kid to have access to most* of my files after I pass. I am of course excluding the kind of content that “real friends” delete while your body is still warm.

It’d be nice to donate all my equipment to some kid who is very interested. That would be something I’d be interested in.

My documented plan includes that kind of donation for my amateur radio equipment, but I’m going to let my survivors handle the home lab.
