I'm considering buying a computer and using it has my home server. I'm tired of paying Apple to store ten thousand screenshots in iCloud.

I also want to own my music and other media files.

Basically, I want all my storage to be in my hands.

Anyone know of good open source software I can use to achieve my goal?

@fromjason I like Jellyfin for media and Nextcloud for phone sync cloud-y things

Potentially consider Proxmox if you want to keep stuff isolated on separate VMs. Maybe not necessary. But it does run great on a laptop, I have a few of those in my basement lol

@admin heard of nextcloud! Looks promising. Thank you!

@fromjason @admin

I've also been using Nextcloud in the last year and it does everything I need. I think it could be worth trying.

As a server/application manager I've heard of Yunohost. It looks interesting but I've never used it.
