You have so much legally obtained content. You're an example to the community.
-
DEFINITELY do a Step by Step. I'm just getting into server stuff and would love to learn from you mate.
-
The amount of work put in this video and in the setup itself flies through the roof. I got really inspired to lift up my tiny Raspberry pi server to something much greater!
-
I love how much information is in this video without over doing it on any one topic. Tips, why you chose it, how you use it, and clear explanation of what it does and it’s application. Definitely saving this video to refer back to. Thank you!
-
Thanks for making this! I'm making a home server for my family to use for plex and a google drive alternative. Your vids are in-depth yet digestible and you know how to edit so what you're looking at is clean and interesting. Thanks for all that you do
-
I am planning to set up my home server on an old laptop and it's been weeks of searching and reading through random articles, forums, yt videos etc to create a list of links for reference but when I stumbled on your video I was mindblown by how well made this was. Watched it fully in one go because of how useful it is and packed with so much usable info. From infra to services to security to deplyment to networking, just absolutely insane. Thank you so much for this.
-
Never thought that IaC would be brought to this channel, and I'm all for the detailed Ansible guide. Merry Christmas to you and everyone watching.
-
I've been debating learning Ansible for a while. Recently got my DCV-VCP 2021 and I kinda of want to learn Ansible + Vagrant to see what all cool stuff can be done. Your playbook is a goal, from zero config to fully functional in one playbook. Very nice.
-
The video was packed full of great things. I can hardly wait for more videos, especially HomeAssistant, you bring things across in such a calm and structured way, it's fun to watch the videos.
-
The amount of useful information in this video is just insane. Thank you SO much and please make more videos like this!!!
-
Densely packed. Elegant. And immediately practical. Thanks! Not sure I can pull off a whole ansiblized server configuration, but now I’ll look at it carefully.
-
As someone just starting to learn about self hosting, I think this video is packed with great tips. Thanks for taking the time to explain your setup!
-
I’ve watched this video several times since it was uploaded, most times only getting about half way until I had to tap out from confusion. Not your fault, I just didn’t have the prerequisite knowledge before diving in. It’s been over a year since this video was uploaded, and I have finally gotten to the end. I just wanted to share this small achievement of mine, and also commend you: it takes balls to demo an ansible playbook on a production machine with all your data on it. Fair play, and great video.
-
Super long video but… Super packed with info! Bizarrely I know all the Ansible automation stuff you covered later but really want to deep dive into almost everything you covered earlier. Great video 👍 really enjoyed it 👍
-
I'm an SRE and thankful you're out here providing all of this great institutional knowledge for those who wanna get into this this stuff.
-
I just found this and I want to give it 10.000 thumbs up. Especially the parts about using a Reverse Proxy for your webservices, proxying connections via Cloudflare, Authelia and reinstalling your Linux system because after a while they feel "dirty" were so good!
-
I just want to let my FBI agent know that I am legally watching this video from my legally purchased device that is connected to a legally purchased network connection that only transmits legal things.
-
This is an incredible video. Very well done. Way beyond my capacity but great to see what can be done!
-
Thanks for making this video, this was super helpful! I was able to fork and run your playbook after some trial and error, using it as a jumping off point for a similar setup, adding things I want to host from repos like docker-selfhosted-apps. Having the setup defined with IaC makes me a lot more willing to spend some time and do it properly instead of hacking together something and having to redo/forget parts later.
