Hello everyone!
I did it. I reached a point where I got everything exactly how I wanted and now… Now I am dissatisfied as I look over my home lab’s chaotic mess of a setup. This was my first time selfhosting things, and I learned a ton of stuff. I’ll probably want to tear it down and start anew in the near future, being much tidier and mindful of what goes where.
Does anyone have any tips they want to impart to someone who’s not an entire newbie but still learning stuff? Kind of a “If I could tell myself this before I set everything up, I would say…”
You’ll never be happy with it. Even if you get it 100% perfect, someone will release an update or new toy that changes things. But that’s life. Don’t stress about it. Just get the parts you want working in the free time you have.
Readarr stopped working months ago. It finally went offline just a few weeks ago. I hadn’t done anything about it until then. I still haven’t replaced it with anything. Maybe I’ll get to it eventually.
