This is a bi-weekly "self-hosting" home lab meetup, geared towards makers/hackers new to the concept of setting up a home lab. The idea would be to discuss and help out each other with fun, privacy focused self-hosted topics, like...


* 🏠 Running an open source smart home with Home Assistant
*Setting up your first budget-friendly home server
* 🪄 Turn your home into a Rube Goldberg machine
*Comparing easy drop-in one-click install solutions to manage your server
* 🔐 Keep your data private, what gear to use
*Home Assistant for smart home devices and automations
* 💡 Still being able to incorporate your existing smart home hardware
*DIY Dropbox / Google Drive alternatives
* 💯 And anything else related!
*Self-hosted Google Photos replacement
*Private Netflix/Spotify for legally obtained movies/shows
*Running AI at home without giving away your draft novel
*Ad-blocking solutions
* Cloudless security camera
*Backups galore
*And more!
 
 
So if you're a beginner or tech-savvy, come and join! Note, this is piggybacking on Linux Club.
