A slightly less technical post - these are some things I’ve learned from having a HomeLab for over a decade.

    I’ve been doing HomeLab and HomeLab-adjacent things for over 10 years at this point. My first experience in the space was a Raspberry Pi 2 that I used for a few years to run various services such as Pi-Hole, CUPS, and numerous other software.

    Holy shit, pi-hole is 10 years old?

      Pi-hole first commit June 8, 2014 (first public release June 2015) and Pi 2 released in February 2015, so not quite 10 years on either

        Its possible that I estimated the timeline wrong 😅

        I’ve added a note to the blog, thanks!

          Apologies if that sounded like an admonishment of you lol, 2015 definitely seems like 20 years ago and I’d probably just say 10 at this point too

            Not at all! I agree, and COVID didn’t help at all. I do want to try and be accurate though :p
