I’m still dipping my toes into self hosting and trying to figure out what services I would want to be always accessible from my devices vs those that could be awakened by LAN, and which services should be installed at the OS level vs as containers.

As of now, I just have an OrangePi 5 Plus running Home Assistant Supervised under Debian and nothing else. I’m hoping to expand the OPi a bit and also build out another PC (hardware unknown) as a NAS media server and NextCloud machine.

Before I start doing anything I can’t undo, I’m wondering if I’ on the right track with my proposed setup in the image, or if there’s anything else I should consider?

    Okay well:

    1. understandable
    2. stop worrying so much, it can always be fixed
    3. like I said, if you need the actual space, then make that plan
    4. you can host anything on anything. If it’s not moving as fast as you want it, THEN think about switching to something else

      1. I dont think theyre worried, they seem to value informed decisions
      2. again, true, but a bit of foresight can save hassle
