I’ve been slowly dipping my toes into self hosting.
What are the risks or disadvantages of using something like this? My plan has been to run debian with whatever services. Reading about this, it seems very complex and that makes me worried that it is more to go wrong.
On the other hand, it’ll be 10 years til I learn how to do all this myself.
The main disadvantage is it will be very hard to debug and fix when something breaks.
You don’t need 90% of this stuff for starting some services if you wanted to do it from scratch, just learn how to use docker compose and a reverse proxy and you’ll be all set. You can always add more on later.

The problem is that many people learn by themselves, and leave a security vulnerability. This is designed to avoid that
