Minecraft is actually a super easy setup, especially if you’re okay with only running it on the local network.

If my memory’s alright, this page will have all you need, as well as being the best server software currently out for Minecraft https://purpurmc.org/

mostly youtube channels and online webcomics (xkcd my beloved), although there is the occassional podcast (none of which I have listened to)

and it’s working fantastically, congratulations! I’ve been considering self-hosting for a while now but I’m afraid of the responsibility :P
