Maybe something on this list would meet your needs:

Anyway, I can dig up some helpful documentation if you’re rally interested.

I mean, if you have a couple bookmarks handy, I’m always down to learn, but don’t put yourself out. I’ve been interested in Incus, basically because it’s the next best, new thing. Admittedly, I have not yet plumbed all the depths of Docker, tho I have a solid working knowledge of how everything works, and I have dabbled with Kubernetes.

Interesting. What would be an example of a docker container that would not run on IncusOS?

Pretty good issue. NextExplorer, Wildbox, and Sync-in look pretty intriguing.

I guess I’m a unicorn in that Netflix or equal has no draw for me. I’m not a movie watcher. I’m more interested in how they made it vs the actual movie content itself. I don’t even watch TV of any kind. I have no Spotify or equal, music streaming platform. I just can’t take the incessant ads every couple songs, and it’s the same flipping ad over and over. Instead, I listen to my music collection which is fairly large, most of it from my days of running a licensed internet radio station back in the pre-Napster days, and read. Not much into fiction or novels etc. Give me history, news, anything to do with computers, etc. I mean, the internet is a vast repository of data, and I have yet to surf to the end of it. At no other time in human history have we had the sum total of the world’s knowledge, maybe not wisdom, but knowledge, resting in the palm of our hand or sitting on a desktop. The great libraries of Alexandria would look like my magazine rack in comparison. I just find that reading helps me digest the information better, and in the case of news, it allows me to cross reference, highlight, search, compare ad nauseam, in search of the truth trifecta, which you’ll never get on your TV screen.

It would be super cool tho, to have a server dedicated to a totally on premise AI with no connectivity to external AI. I’m just not sure whether I can justify several thousand dollars of equipment. Because if I did, true to my nature, I’d want to go all in.

<giggle> I’ve self hosted a few of the bite sized LLM. The thing that’s keeping me from having a full blown, self hosted AI platform is my little GeForce 1650 just doesn’t have the ass to really do it up right. If I’m going to consult with AI, I want the answers within at least 3 or 4 minutes, not hours. LOL

I knew when I asked, someone would just whip out some links and wonder ‘Why the hell didn’t he read this shit right here? Search engines exist!’ LOL I thank you for the spoon feed. So, apparently I do a lot of ‘fun’ stuff.

I like it…I could change out the tranny and insert a standard 4 on the floor, but I’ve tried to keep it as true to the original as I can. I’d call it a resto-mod. I tell people half joking, that I’m saving it for when our government can turn cars off at will, which pretty much has existed for a while now. It’s not a daily driver. The only real driving I do is on the farm. I have had a TBI which blessed me with a seizure condition and tho I do have a valid license, I just couldn’t live with myself if I were cruising at 70 mph down the road and had a seizure, drifted into oncoming traffic and killed someone. So exterior of the farm, I employ the services of my lady friend.

Can confirm. The scripts in the new repository work just fine. I’ve run a bunch of them.

Fuck it. My dad used to work on his car, I think this is my generation’s equivalent.

I’ve got a '75 Ford pickup with 3 on the tree. I can work on that. Hell, I can pop the bonnet and sit on the fender and dangle my legs in the engine compartment. Once the automobile industry moved away from that type of design and started incorporating computer blocks, chips, et al, that you needed a metric and imperial tool set replete with a plethora of specialized tools just to work on them, that was outside my field of expertise. My Ford F450? Nope. I can’t even wedge my hamfists in a few inches. The whole engine compartment is slap full.

I’m starting on my home networking journey. I have a beeline on the way to build my own router…pfSense, OpenSense, OpenWRT…still chewing on that but I’m going to do it.

DO IT!

OP, I came across this, thought it might be worth a look see.

or as we did back in the olden days: ^5

Cosmos, Yunohost, CasaOS etc are pretty straight forward packages.

If I were a younger man, I’ve always wanted to produce a ‘server in a box’. Something small, powerful, capable, came with a plethora of click to deploy apps, in an environment that would be conducive with the average homeowner’s computer savvy or lack there of. I’ve seen a lot of mini-racks made with Lenovo ThinkCenters that really look good, could fit on a shelf in a closet and serve the household with privacy respecting software.

But I’m far from being a younger man, so one of you guys take the lead and make a million $$.

Best thing to do is give it a go and see what shakes out OP. I absolutely love both my Proxmox boxes. In my humble opinion, Proxmox was an easier set up, and the possibilities are endless really. It’s a solid freemium product. Couple it with the extensive Helper Scripts, and Jack’s a doughnut, Bob’s your uncle.

First, they are all solid platforms. Yunohost would be my choice if I were making it again. I don’t exactly know this, but I would think that Yunohost’s app catalog either exceeds or rivals most platforms in this category. They do list broken software separately. I don’t know why, they’ve always done that. I guess it’s for someone who might want to give it a go fixing one. But, their usable app catalog is pretty comprehensive. Both CasaOS and Cosmos have very beautiful UI. Very polished.

I am not sure I want to rely on Cloudflare too much

Totally understandable. It’s good to be aware of future pitfalls, etc. I realize there are those who frown on Cloudflare, and I can see their point. For me, I’ll use them for the time being, and monitor any policy changes, or future gotchas. Of course, it goes without saying, that we should be doing that anyways even for opensource software. Things change, motivations change, project direction changes.

There are similar alternatives to Cloudflare Tunnels/ZeroTrust. I have not tried every one of them so I cannot vouch for their usability. There is ngrok, which seems to be the most popular of the alternatives, and there is Pagekite, Zrok, Pinggy, Localtunnel. As far as selfhosted options, Nebula, SirTunnel, BoringProxy, Pangolin, and frp come to mind.

If it were me, and these were public facing businesses, I would go with something rock solid like Cloudflare, familiarize myself with the options, then monitor for policy changes.

Nextcloud, tho a very capable package with just about all the bells and whistles one could ever need, is a resource eating beast. LOL

Anytime bro. Did you get it going?
