Either self-hosted or cloud, I assume many of you keep a server around for personal things. And I’m curious about the cool stuff you’ve got running on your personal servers.

What services do you host? Any unique stuff? Do you interact with it through ssh, termux, web server?

I’ve been a software engineer for 8 years and I’ve had my own Jellyfin server (and before that, Plex) set up for 4 years on a server that I built myself.

Despite this, I don’t have a damn clue what “virtualized through Proxmox” means any time I read it.

They are just running things in VMs. They may even have a cluster with some sort of high availability.

Or containers, but lxc instead of docker-like. They’re like full VMs in operation but super lightweight. Perfect for some needs.

I personally find that LXC really isn’t better than a VM.

Proxmox is a hypervisor, like VMware. They are just running containers and / or VMs. Procmox is the management interface.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
