Hello, I’ve recently discovered self hosting and I really want to get into it. I’m not going to fully deep dive now, but I at least want to know the basics before I start my own journey. So today I came to ask if anybody has a roadmap or recommends a path for me to get into self hosting.
As far as Linux goes, I’m currently on Mint but only know how to update and switch/list directories. I do not know docker but understand the basics of it. This also goes for tailscale.
I know what a NAS is and how it works and the different Raids and when to use which one. I know what I want to self host but I am not sure if I want to use docker or proxmox. I’m also don’t understand the proxmox and how it works. Any information or tutorial would be highly appreciated. Thanks you
I don’t know how up to date this is, because I haven’t used it in a while but it was helpful to me when I was first getting started: https://github.com/mikeroyal/Self-Hosting-Guide#getting-started-with-self-hosting
I ended up going with proxmox because you get all the features of proxmox, and you can use docker on it. So, best of both worlds. For some youtube resources, check out:
There is also https://landchad.net/ which has some useful info and tutorials.
Lastly, these final two aren’t guides per se, but have lots of useful resources:
You are amazing for this thank you.
Dude, you rule
