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.

I use my home server for everything. It’s an i5-13500 system, 48GB of RAM, an RX6650XT, and currently 14 drives all packed into a 4U case.
I virtualize my desktop on it, just passing through the GPU, P-Cores, and 16GB of RAM. That’s my primary dev workstation at home, and also my gaming machine (which runs sunshine for streaming games). I also have a Mac VM set up with OSX-KVM and minimal resources for Bluebubbles.
My drives are set up in several pools. I have two SSD pools: a boot pool running ZFS for the host server system (Debian), and a VM/Container ZFS pool for docker container images and configs as well as the Mac VM. I also have a whole NVMe SSD dedicated to the workstation VM. Finally, I have two large HDD pools: A mergerfs/snapraid setup for media storage (4 drives) and a large ZFS pool (5 drives) for important personal data like pictures and documents.
Services I run:
Always looking for new self hosted stuff to try! I’m thinking of getting into the *arr stuff soon but I’m a bit intimidated by it. Also I’ve got a Raspberry Pi 5 on the way that I’m gonna use for Jellyfin, moonlight, and music streaming to my living room TV
