    Don’t do a large pile.

    When you get to it, start with the smallest possible thingy thats easy and fun and be proud of yourself for doing that.

    Don’t even think about the pile or the mere thought of it’s existence will demotivate you from ever starting.

    (ask me how I know)

      Having spent a good amount of the last several weeks working on several self hosted things,I would have to agree. Simple projects shouldn’t take long… But some shit happens.

      When something is done and working, it is satisfying.

        I wanted to set up a kubernetes cluster and bought 2k worth of hardware, which ended up lying in a box for 3 freaking years before I gave up on kubernetes and just set it up with dokploy in swarm mode.
