How This Server Ended Up Here

This project sits somewhere between curiosity, stubbornness, and the reality of the place I live. In an ideal world it would be humming quietly in a corner of my home on a small low power box. In the actual world I get unstable electricity, zero wired internet options, and uptime that depends a lot on the weather.

Why This “Homelab” Does Not Live at Home

On paper a homelab belongs at home. In practice mine would spend most of its time disconnected. There is no cable or fiber in my area yet, so the only option is mobile internet. Every provider here uses data caps; there are no real unlimited plans, just quotas that vanish the moment you do anything interesting. Combine that with unreliable power and you get a terrible base for self hosting.

Renting this VPS gives me what my building cannot: a stable, always on connection that keeps running when the lights go out or my mobile data is empty. It is basically my homelab in exile, temporarily living in a datacenter in Germany.

From PC Gamer to Reluctant Sysadmin

I started as a regular PC gamer who cared about frame rates and sales, not filesystems or containers. After enough years of Windows updates, launchers inside launchers, and strange background processes, I slowly moved toward Linux and doing more things myself.

Steam and Proton made that jump realistic. Huge thanks to Gaben and Valve for making so many Windows only games playable on Linux without turning it into a full time job.

I am not a veteran systems administrator. I am just good at searching for error messages and reading other people’s solutions. Everything here exists because of documentation dives, copied and adapted examples, broken configs, and retrying things until the logs stopped complaining. This server is my lab bench, classroom, and “what happens if I press this” environment all at once.

Offline By Habit

I have always preferred having local copies of what I use most, whether that is games, movies, or music. If I do not have the actual files, it does not feel like I really own anything. Streaming only access and constant online checks make everything feel temporary.

Growing up with downloads and local media shaped that mindset. I like systems where I can be offline for a week and still have my entire library available without asking any server for permission first. That attitude is a big reason I care about self hosting and digital preservation.

A Firm Stance on Denuvo

My view on digital ownership is simple. If I pay for software, I should keep meaningful control over how and when I use it. I have very little patience for systems that treat paying customers as a threat by default.

This server costs me about $7 a month. I'm going to keep paying for it regardless because I'm learning, but if these services helped you and you want to buy me a coffee, I appreciate it.
