From reddit selfhosted: What do you wish you knew from the start

SelfhostedEnglish • 1 month ago

I saw this post today on Reddit and was curious to see if views are similar here as they are there.

What are the best benefits of self-hosting?
What do you wish you would have known as a beginner starting out?
What resources do you know of to help a non-computer-scientist/engineer get started in self-hosting?

I went from NGinx to HAProxy for 5 years, now on Caddy for 2 and loving it. So much simpler and efficient.
