Figured we’d start this community off with a question about what you’re running in your homelab!

This could be anything from hardware to software to things your running in the cloud (#cloudlab).

Hardware and diagram pics are always welcome!

    Yeah, that’s true, they do have pretty good prices. I like DO though because it’s where I started and they have a DC not too far from me, so latency is very low.

      It’s also nice to pay for not having to deal with the hardware, and to also have the hidden costs go away (ie, electricity)

        That’s true! Those do add up over time.

        I’d love to go full cloud-native with a kubernetes cluster, but I can’t justify the $100+ a month for a reasonable cluster :(

          That’s my disappointment as well! I’ve done k3s on a droplet, and it was nice, but I’d like to handover the control plane to a cloud provider when I’m experimenting without burning my wallet.

            For sure, then you just have to worry about deploying apps. Seems a lot easier for testing.
