Self hosting your website at home - my experience so far (alien.top)

Hi all, some months ago I had an accident that required surgery, long story short, found this sub and it helped me go through the slow recovery process. I have been learning a lot with you and now I want to share my experience so far, I put together a post about self-hosting my website at home, the hardware I'm using, the software, tools, etc. I hope you find it useful or even inspirational if you haven't started yet, and I would love to hear your comments.

for the shell, that's an easy one, shellinabox, with a custom dark mode.

for the exposed services you describe, none are "exposed", they are hosted in nginx (meant to face the WAN, subdomained and not port forwarded) with fail2ban setup for custom filtering, and beyond that are proxied through cloudflare and their filtering for ddos etc. Most of my services are behind htpasswd hashed/salted pw's or ldap (right now just htpasswd for the local site), and the ones that arn't use token logins like plex, overseerr, etc. I'll be ok :)
