The whole home lab scene is great.
Everyone has some set of goals... low power, interesting processors, data ownership, HA, UPS/whole home UPS... and the home is the only common intersection of all these overlapping interests, and bits of software. Even more fascinating is the types of people it attracts, from professionals playing to people far outside the industry.
I have really taken the plunge and it recaptures some of the magic of the early internet (at least for me).
- AnarchismIsCool 3y agoThe community is absolutely amazing. It's incredibly active on Reddit and Lemmy. People are always quick to help you find solutions and give you advice on setting things up using best practices. It's an absolute gem if learning this stuff is interesting to you.
- zer00eyz 3y agoThe home lab community is a very leaky abstraction ;) Serve the home, and level 1 on YouTube... It intersects with proxmox community, home assistant community, all the NAS distros... The spread out and over lapping nature of these groups really adds to the early internet vibe!
- tills13 3y agowhich lemmy instance / community do you recommend?
- AnarchismIsCool 3y agoI like selfhosted@lemmy.world but there are probably plenty of others
- bazmattaz 3y agoAbsolutely. As a prolific Reddit user I have a a love hate relarelationship with the site but the home lab and self hosted communities have restored my faith in internet communities
