I have an old laptop lying around and I have been meaning to self host some stuff on it but never got around to it.

My biggest limitation is that I only have WIFI and I do not control the network. It’s basically your default residential WIFI network.

The only thing I actually need is self-hosted cloud. What can I utilize this laptop for?

      Its a startup that offers a web dashboard and a proxy for public access. I used it for a while when it was fairly new and there app store made it easy to find and deploy services.

        I ended up trying it. In theory it’s all nice and useful, because it solves the part that I am not comfortable with (router settings, domains and other connection stuff). But then I don’t know Kubernetes so I couldn’t understand what I was doing and I was not able to troubleshoot it. And I could not connect to my server remotely anyway.

          And that’s the reason I am taking back what I said. At the end of the day wireguard is your friend.
