There’s some things called software architecture, requirement engineering and software design. More dev teams should try this.

I self host some stuff, because I dislike that I’m buying only the rights to consume certain kinds of e-media, instead of buying the e-media itself. So I make us of the consumer rights laws in europe and make a decrypted personal copy and stream it myself from my home server (an outdated laptop)
I spun this up just today and had no issues whatsoever. Just a bad aftertase because the AIO package creates and manages other containers on the host, I’d love to have more control over those as well. But for the sake of comfortability I’ll just have to accept that. And it truly works out of the box!
Also some kind of Machinery. “GameMachine” for my Xbox “BigMachine” for my PC “MiniMachine” for my Phone “MicroMachine” for my Pi
Except my small 2-in-1 Laptop. That’s “decepticon”. Because it’s an Asus Transformer Book.
I usually cut down on domain/DNS cost by using a free dynamic DNS service called duckdns. It works super well, provides Let’s Encrypt support and sub-sub-domains. (for example your could have https://git.$username.duckdns.org
)
I’ve found as a IT noob that Caddy 2
provides as much “batteries inside” and “boiler-plate free” to support me, because I have no Idea what I’m doing. So I just let caddy handle my encryption and reverse proxy to my actual server.
I’m an embedded software dev, who only discovers ethernet protocols on a surface level, because we hadn’t need it yet in previous projects, so I’m a bit lost on how to do cloud stuff. So having all these great tools for free for me to try out and connect from outside to my media servers and stuff is awesome!
It’s not. Like the commenter above said: It’s a fraction of the task at hand. Especially when you design the rest of the system to run only if necessary. Context Switches are what? like 50 CPU Cycles? Store Registers, Store TCB, Load other TCB and load other register states jump back to PC. Maybe some other OS Shenanigans, but that’s basically it.
Now Imagine complex calculations on a 25-Dimensional Matrix.
