Not exactly self hosting but maintaining/backing it up is hard for me. So many “what if”s are coming to my mind. Like what if DB gets corrupted? What if the device breaks? If on cloud provider, what if they decide to remove the server?

I need a local server and a remote one that are synced to confidentially self-host things and setting this up is a hassle I don’t want to take.

So my question is how safe is your setup? Are you still enthusiastic with it?

    The real fun is going to be when he’s finally up and running… I have ~250TB of data on the Truenas box. Initial sync is going to take a hot week… or 2…

    Edit: 23 days at his max download speed :(

    Fine… a hot month and a half.

      I’m doing something similar (with a lot less data), and I’m intending on syncing locally the first time to avoid this exact scenario.
