Docker Compose is really the easiest way to self-host.

Copy a file, usually provided by the developers of the app you want to run, change some values if instructed by the # comments, run docker compose up and it “just works”.

And I say that as someone who has done everything from distro-provided packages to compiling from source, Nix, podman systemd, and currently running a full-blown multi-node distributed storage Kubernetes cluster at home.

Just use docker compose.

Sure, you can buy Windows 11 Pro and follow these steps, or just install any modern Linux distro and tick the box “encrypt disk” in the installer.

It provides a way to share “web” pages (text, images, links) that can be read by a simple minimal client. Without needing a web browser

This is amazing!! I had no idea this was possible!

I am definitely sharing this, thank you for writing the blog!
