I use a DO droplet with docker compose. Filthy dev here too. Much cheaper overtime than buying and hosting home server equipment.
Some stuff you want to have in your house though, like storage and stuff like home assistant.
I'd never trust DO with my vintage europorn collection
But those aren't in your house. No good for things like media servers.
An n100 PC is much better than that crapberry pi
N100 is two years old now. If you're going to suggest a mini PC, at least suggest one with a current gen CPU.

Ha ha
Under-complicated -> over-complicated -> under-complicated.
There's a 'just right' that I think you skipped through.
I love my little k3s box and having all my config in git
I'm actually just about to start up my server again on a rp4. It's been like 5 years since I've used it. Is dietpi still the best way to go about making a Plex media server/bare bones desktop environment that I can access with 'no-machine'?
I sear no machine just broke my autoboot setup one day and I never got around to fixing it. What do you nerds think?
I'm not interested in video streaming, just hosting my music collection and audiobooks. I remember FTP being a pain to transfer music files from my phone
As a developer and not a sysadmin, I refuse to learn anything more than docker. It's good enough for me π€
Edit: on a more serious note, proxmox with docker containers has been more than enough for me
I've met sysadmins who say that unironically π

I've been enjoying Jeff Geerling's ongoing experiments with his 10" Raspberry Pi mini rack.
It doesn't work for me since all of my network equipment is 19" and there's no point in having two racks but having a 10" standard is still a great idea!

Wait, you can host a website on a raspberry pi !? But is it really cheaper than shared hosting, for instance? And even then, quality-wise, it cannot be that good, can it?
My understanding is raspberrypi.com is hosted on raspberry pis. It's a Linux computer; it can do anything a Linux computer can do.
You can definitely run a low traffic website with a Pi. You can run Minecraft Servers and such on Pis. Especially on Pi4s.
