After some #procrastination and a long time working on it, here is the promised blog post about my experiences, tips, tricks and troubles on HOW TO BUILD YOUR HOME LAB:
From an over-engineered #kubernetes approach to a simplified #docker #architecture .
As usual, any #feedback is more than welcome.

@android10 That's awesome, thanks for sharing :D. I was thinking on doing something similar myself, but I was totally thinking on using Docker and not even looking at Kubernetes. Among other things because I don't know anything about it, and I've heard enough people saying it's overkill for most projects that I don't even want to spend any time learning it.
@android10 I'm curious about something though. You're using Synology for file syncing (first time I hear about it). Did you consider NextCloud or do you have any reasons why it's better/worse? That's the one I'm thinking on using :) In particular, I'm thinking on having a hybrid cloud/homelab setup (most files in the homelab, some folders synced across cloud/local). Not sure if it even makes sense, but that's the idea I have in mind at the moment.
