Looking for advice on getting started with Self Hosting (lemmy.ml)

Hi folks, looking for a bit of steer to get off the ground with self hosting. My goals to start with are pretty straight forward:

  • I want to set up Home Assistant to move my smart devices off the cloud and fully contained within the walls of my home.
  • I want to set up my own little Pixelfed server for my family's use, along with some other federated socials.

From what I was looking at, I think my easiest route to doing both of these things is with a Home Assistant Yellow (built-in Zigbee and Thread system) with a Raspberry Pi 4.

I've never done anything like this before but I'm interested in learning. If anyone more experienced has any insight or direction, I'd really appreciate it! Cheers!
