It was meaningful for me, personally. I don't know that many people who run homelabs, though -- I think it's fallen out of favor somewhat.

- dinkleberg 4y agoHomelabs can be super handy if you want to grow your linux sys admin skills, but since we all use cloud services these days the need for that skill is diminishing. I decommissioned my homelab a couple years back because there was just no longer the need. But there is still a pretty hardcore community around it (just checkout /r/homelab if you have a burning hole in your wallet).
- Nextgrid 4y agoCloud services (and networking in general) still depend on these low-level skills, plus with the increased scarcity of VC money companies might actually start to be cost-conscious and do things in-house again instead of burning money by offloading it onto the cloud.
