I am currently having a self hosted setup in an Oracle free tier vps. I am hosting ( docker ):

Jellyfish
Flame dashboard
Qbitorrent
Radarr
Powlarr
File manager
Portainer
Matrix

So, the question here is should I continue hosting there or should I get a mini or micro PC and host it in my home. I have a fairly good fiber net and have home ups too. Your advice? ( If I could get a new PC or something similar my budget is around 15K (INR) ).

The disadvantage for a home lab is, that you have to keep the power for that server up. Also you need the space (even if it's just a mini pc). I am also using the oracle free tier and for that it is optimal to keep it on oracle's site.
