    I’m very ignorant about it. I wonder if I can buy a cheap computer and turn it into a server that I can only use by keeping it on all the time?

      @Alpagu @behohippy Sure, that’s how we all started. An old computer, throw proxmox in there, a few VMs and/or a docker host and you have yourself a pretty sweet homelab.

      Yup, typically we get into it after upgrading an older PC or something and instead of selling the parts, just turn it into a server. You can also find all sorts of cheap/good stuff on ebay from office off-lease.
