  • I loathe this approach. But for me its more of a hobby and even then, I too am alergic to overt complexity, but saying no maintenance is asking for a security hole to open, sure it can be automated away, but it still takes at least SOME work.

    The main reason I dislike this approach is by doing things as simply as possible you delegate the control to the developer of your solution. Its not a one size fits all thing. Some solutions can for sure be turnkey, but most should require some work, because we do this to regain control, not delegate more of it away.







  • Ultich, dont take this the wrong way, but thats how you are using systems and thats how you see them. It is your perspective, not everyones perspective.

    Computers are not just one thing, one tool. They can be, they are, many times. But for many of us they are hobbies, a thing to tinker and experiment with, thats who you the the pretty UIs from.

    I get that ignorance is bliss, but you can not paint the whole ecosystem with the same brush. People are different. Generally yeah, you are right, but it is also a very ignorant way to look at things.




  • Oh god, where do I start?

    3 node proxmox setup:

    Net node:

    • opnsense (dns, dhcp, edge firewall, wireguard)
    • caddy
    • ssh hub

    Compute node:

    • a few game servers
    • wiki (kiwix), full copy of wikipedia
    • searxng
    • docker host (portainer plus 10ish containers)
    • forgejo
    • testing vms
    • a separate zfs mirror

    Storage node:

    • all drives, zfs + mirror
    • proxmox backup server
    • home assistant
    • immich
    • ARR stack
    • jellyfin

    Oh and a monitoring node made out of a rpi 4b with an nvme hat,running dietpi, prometheus, grafana and homepage (gethomepage.dev)

    Thats about it plus automations and stuff, wireguard so I can access it from anywhere. Not separated properly, no network zones, just a few vlans for now, work in progress.
