Thoughts
Most used Docker, which I think is a good idea. Running these things at Home and using Tailscale is a good idea.
Key services I think to run are: Portainer, NextCloud, Smokeping, Home Assistant, and Minio.
Things I would run also are “adolfintel/speedtest”, Plex, PhotoPrism, and CyberChef.

Ask HN: Why can’t I run my own email server
- tldr; Spam was horrible so it’s very hard not to get blocked. It’s start to get your mail accepted today.
- Don’t send email from your own server (attejuvonen.fi)
- Requires Dedicated IP which reputation is built up on. An IP requires a “predictable volume of email” sent and needs to be “warmed up” before the reputation begins tracking.
