I’ve studied automotive and never really graduate, but I love reading manuals since I was a kid and always believe that even I don’t know what am I doing as long I can read It’s manual, guide, documentation and read support I could get a grasp of it even if it takes more time.

A part that made it easier for me to understand self-hosting is the raspberry pi. It let me thinker self-hosting without worrying about power bill, how can I easily reinstall its OS even if I make bunch of mistake, make different copies of my setup on different sd card without worries of hdd or ssd.

Then from that just upgraded stuff from what I’ve learned.
