I run fewer and fewer services myself. "A person's primary task should not be computing, but being human."[0] I find that self-hosting gets in the way of that.

I run fewer and fewer services myself. "A person's primary task should not be computing, but being human."[0] I find that self-hosting gets in the way of that.
Nonetheless, I still host my media server[1] and my timeline thing[2]. The former has been rock solid so it does not need replacement. The later did not exist so I had to create it. I do plan to rewrite it far more simply though. After toying with static site generators, I don't want to host super heavy docker setups anymore.
The hardware is some generic small form factor PC. It's overkill for what it currently does, but it's very fast at media conversion. It runs some flavour of linux, but I don't remember which.
