That’s totally cool man.
So in a nutshell, the reason for my network is rather multi-faceted. I dig on privacy, anonymity, and security so I run my network. It’s also a learning platform, as I do indeed love to learn new things that I didn’t know. I also just totally love technology, so selfhosting clicks with me. I also like dabbling in automation, minor programing. Additionally, I use things like Readeck because I’m always ‘clipping articles’ to read later, things that catch my fancy. I am a prolific reader. I selfhost my on Navidrome instance so I can listen to my own personal collection of music wherever I am. It’s really just a huge playground for an old soul.

Pretty cool setup. Navidrome and Readeck are also on my bucket list now !
But i got confused on the part where you said that you run your own network . What does that mean? and How does that work?
Oh, I think I meant, in my own insufficient vernacular: ‘my network’. Meaning the LAN that I administer. Servers, TV’s iot devices(1), servers(3), security measures like a standalone pfsense firewall, security cams, etc. Much like a commercial ISP network, just scaled down considerably and local. My services are reachable exterior of my network, protected by SSO (Authentik). I am the only user so I do not make my services publicly available to anyone but me. It’s a playground to me, that has it’s very practical uses, Even tho I’m old as dirt, I still like toys. LOL
Sorry. “so I run my network” was not really a complete thought.
