I personally have a K3S cluster I host at home and an auto-scaled cluster in Hetzner. I see different use cases and am happy to have both.
One thing to mention is that you can also run your own tunnel with something like pangolin on a VPS (CX23 is plenty). Thus, you could have a cheaper could bill if you wanted a hybrid setup.
Also, I highly recommend moving your node to a data center closer to home.
I’m running Immich on an old ThinkCentre with the default feature set. Currently looking at:
There is a bit more overhead for the control plane and cloud-native PG operator/backup pods but my instance fits comfortably inside a ~4GB allocation.
Well, time to edit .bash_aliases…
Can’t speak to your exact machine but nowadays the license tends to be tied to the hardware.
If you are capable of manual partitioning then you should be able to reinstall Windows quickly if needed.
I would go with 16GB for the kinds of things you listed.
If you don’t need a 3.5in drive then I would go even smaller to a mini form factor. It will definitely save you money on electricity. I think it’s the main choice here.
Key-only SSH with fail2ban and I sleep easy a night.
I would go for refurb, business line SFF machines. Something like ThinkCentre or Optiplex. Specific form factor based on drive needs but the smaller you go the more power efficient. I have one on the bigger side (internal psu) that runs about 12W idle.
Just double check that it can handle hardware transcoding. Should fit right in your budget!

This level of precision doesn’t make sense. I wouldn’t go any higher than 5 digits which is already meter accuracy.
Especially in the context of a portfolio, this would count against you for geospatial software roles.
Gitlab pipelines are super nice to use and integrate nicely with merge requests.
I like the Github UI, clean and simple, but down like what comes along with it…
Interested in self hosting forejo but I’m mostly coding at work these days.
I use Immich for sharing. Get some accounts set up for closest family so you can easily add them to albums. For others you can just share a link to each album, password protected or simply unlisted.
Personally, I run my internet accessible apps on my Hetzner VM behind a reverse proxy, whereas things like home automation, DNS and Octoprint I prefer to serve on my local network.
Can highly recommend tldr as a companion to man!
Same as any piece of software you’re hosting, it’s up to you to decide. I run my instance on my Hetzner vm.

I do -azP for compression
Tilix is great but also unmaintained.
