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
CasaOS in a similar vein. Casa is just an app that can be installed on Linux though.
When I started, I wanted something to obfuscate all the Dockishness because I didn’t get it and just wanted to get going. It helped me get familiar with common Docker things and while I’m very far from being any sort of expert, I’m comfortable enough in a compose file now.
I still have Casa running, though I rely on it less and less. At some point maybe I’ll move everything out.
