Hi guys, I am thinking of selling my old server which until now I have been using as a mini home lab. But now that I have a dedi on hetzner, I don’t really see the point of keeping it around. What do you guys use your home lab for and why do you prefer it over cloud hosting?
I prefer local for privacy. probably hetzner doesn’t look into your belongings, but if police comes knocking because so you said something mean to certain someones, you may not even know your data was stolen. you don’t need to be an activist for it to happen.
you can also keep backups there. and its accessible without internet.
