  Are either of those brands designed with the same level of user serviceability in mind?

  The main drive for framework is how easy they are to repair or mod along with their varying degrees of modularity (such as their swappable ports).

  Because he’s a blog spammer. Sure the question is valid but his “article” is just links to various youtube videos. The blog itself has zero substance.

  Not like there’s much to read in the first place.

  Set up what you want on what you already have and if your workload is more than your hardware can handle then upgrade.

  Overall most of what you rattled off isn’t too resource heavy but 12gb of memory isnt exactly a lot and i dont know what your minecraft server will eat up.

  Alternatively look up the recommended minimum specs for each of your desired applications and add up the needs.

  Additionally if this isnt going to be a headless system and you want a desktop gui that consumes resources as well.

  That sounds more or less to be exactly what I’m doing with NPM currently. I don’t see how it’s easier to configure as all I did was fire up the NPM container, log in, and add my host targets.

  Whats wrong with NPM?

  Its just a computer, nothing more. You would do exactly the same thing as you would on a desktop or vps.

  No you do not have to plug in both power cords but if both aren’t plugged in it may blare an alarm. If so plug in the other or just remove the redundant PSU.

  +1 for restic. I have additionally started using autorestic with it and have been happy how it operates.

  I constantly hear this but I just want to be the counter argument here.

  Self hosting email is not the impossible tasks that people make it out to be. It is on the more advanced side of things though if you are hosting your primary email that you rely on.

  I’ve been hosting my own email forany years now and have had no issues whatsoever but I also have years of experience and know how email works better than many that have no interest in such.

  I would NOT recommended starting your self hosting journey with email but I will never discourage people from doing it.

  Take your time. Ask questions any time you don’t understand something. Be ready to learn a lot and design a solid plan for disaster recovery.
