Hey guys simple question: Do you use self hosting solutions like CasaOS or Yunohost? Why or why don't you?

This is more of a out of curiousity question since I am currently experimenting with different setups. ATM I prefer self hosting solutions because of the easiness of adding services.

    I'm a tinkering nerd, so I like to have a headless Linux box.

    I did use self hosting operating systems in the beginning, and they're nice. However, when I tried just a plain Ubuntu headless install, I felt way more accomplished after getting everything working.

      Yeah I started with a headless Ubuntu server and it was real nice. I’m finally ready to leave Ubuntu though and want to switch to a headless NixOS server.

      Exactly this, nothing against tools like these, but I'm in it for the learning so I want to get as DIY as possible.

      And yeah, it's super satisfying to see it all come together.
