Wow i was on a very similar setup last year software stack wise. I have a small pc i5gen 10 (eats way less than one might think due to the laptop hardware) proxmox on it running 2 debian vms one for home assistant the other for anything else pretty much that doesn’t require huge horsepower but through the weeks/months crashes and bugs i decided to move my media server to a separate box with native jellyfin install to make sure i have full advantage of the hardware acceleration. That machine is nixos but that’s a whole other story 😂.

I think constant iteration is the key/fun with self hosting. I can’t tell you a single thing on my not so long but very eventful journey that I regret. Maybe try to find what is actually “mission critical data” that you once setup you say i need this to be online and reliable etc so you can play more freely on a separate system be that a vm or anything. Oh and document everything you do will come handy 10000% i guess that’s the only thing I wish I could done better is finding a tool I like to document with. For me it’s like this: I start documenting then something annoying happens with the note taking app or it’s just bloated and I’ll unintentionally abandon the whole thing.

Anyway that’s me waffling 😂 Have fun and I’m happy to share all the little exp I have just give me a shout ✌🏽

Haha right? My first reaction exactly. Written in rust so that’s that. Oh forgot yo mention the collab features almost equally amazing

I use Zed Yeah the agentic ai feature is nice and all but I don’t use it much. However the whole speed of it and the layout of the ui is very close to my heart eg.: native remote server connection or you can hide stuff away to be distraction free. Tldr.: feels nice, looks nice

I could be missing something but I never see Karakeep when the pocket shutdown is being mentioned. I’m curious ppl don’t know or don’t like karakeep?

The wh 40k lore sounds more realistic than ever
