I love the idea and the philosophy behind ! I have no trouble with them for now, one click install perfect.

However I’ll never use it for programming and I don’t understand why people use vs code flatpak or other coding app, because the app is contained and cannot interact with your system.

Discovering Octopath traveller II. Not a big fan for now, It’s beautiful but I’m a bit disappointed by the story. Hope it gets better 🤞

One think you need to check before is your upload speed. Without a good one, it will essentially be useless outside of your home.
As for the computer, definitely buy something that can do virtualization, I’ve heard that some motherboard can’t (never seen one, maybe it’s an old thing).
And last, even an old computer can be good for self-hosting, except the plex / jellyfin video, almost everything is static webpages with databases. You can upgrade later just by changing the components, add more storage… You can even copy your entire system to a new computer if you change entirely.

Is it a good idea to host so many services, both publically-accessible websites as well as services only available on my home network, from the same machine?

You can use Caddy’s reverse proxy to have easy https + not opening ports from your router and have something like plex.mydomain.com / mastodon.mydomain.com. And you’ll have no trouble hosting differents services from the same machines. I believe it is not a problem to have multiples services on the same computer.

What are the security considerations when self-hosting?

I’m not an expert, but never use the default password when installing a service. And keep your stuffs up to date. https is important too, but is often automatic when using a reverse proxy.

If you have more question no problems :)

I’m not sure about Plex, it is not really 100% self hosting, because authentication come from their server. You should try and see if it works. But their is no reason it should not. It’s just an addition in your caddyfile :

<pre style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<span style="color:#323232;">plex.mydomain.com {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    reverse_proxy 192.168.0.123:32400 (your address:port)
</span><span style="color:#323232;">}
</span>

However, i can assure you it works with Jellyfin.

For custom settings during playback and some granular tweaks, the extension enhancer for YouTube might come in handy 👍.
I’ll take a look at DeArrow, looks like a great project thx

The most annoying thing is definitely the already watched video recommendation

Even Twitch agressive ad-blocker blocking methods can be bypass fairly easily (it’s just not as easy as downloading an adblocker). I have hope for the future of YouTube’s adblocker !

Wait, they’re still printing movies O_o
I thought it was only stored on computer nowadays. This is sick !

If you’re into self hosting, this repository is simple to install and use for sharing images.

Pop os support of nvidia is great, it’s the only distri where I never had the need to troubleshoot nvidia drivers.
