Hey everyone,

As part of my degoogling journey, I built a home server using my old 2011 PC. So far I’ve set it up with Arch Linux, Podman for containers, Quadlet for setting up NetBird, Nginx Proxy Manager for TLS certificates, Node-RED and systemd services for automation.

To make things reasonably secure, I used Podman for my services and Quadlet to run NetBird as a systemd service.

With this setup, I’ve been able to move away from Google Photos, Google Drive, and I’m slowly moving away from Gmail too.

I’ve been keeping a small internal doc of what I did so I can remember it later. I was thinking of turning it into a proper guide if enough people are interested.

The guide could cover things like Arch setup, Cockpit setup, Podman setup, Nginx Proxy Manager setup, Node-RED automation setup, and the other steps I used to build the server.

Would anyone here be interested in something like that?
