As someone who doesn’t work in tech, I mainly homelab as a way to learn about different technologies for fun. But I also like that I can invest in and control my own data, and don’t have to risk that my data will be inaccessible because a company goes under or changes their business model.
I know this is the self-hosted Community, but I would use GitHub for that use case. I like to keep notes and links in plaintext files, and then store those instruction documents together in a project with any files needed for the project (like config files), that can then ask be easily pulled to the device you’re working on. You can also get fancy and store the instructions in batch files that actually carry out the steps for you.
Of course something very similar could be achieved with a self-hosted git instance, but I like using GitHub because I like having the web interface and Pages option when those are relevant.
There’s a link to the GitHub project at the top of the linked webpage. Sorry: would be happy to just post here for you to save you a step, but something is acting up with my clipboard.
Savage self-burn. Bravo
