I’m just about to build a new server for my media content at home, and I am going to use Linux as the OS.

This is going to be extremely helpful, so thank you for taking the time and effort to post it up on SubStack. 👍🏻

Linux is the kernel, not an operating system.

Proxmox is good variation of a bare metal hypervisor, and with enough fast storage you can spin up a few VMs or better run a ‘buntu with Docker. Lots of options for media servers at that point, PLEX is one I've used in the last.

A setup like that gives you massive flexibility with limited extra overhead.

For extra geek points:

Create a VM with OPNSense, or put it on a standalone machine (a cheap minipc) with at least two gigabit Ethernet connections and you have a better firewall/router combo than anything you can buy for home use.

Make sure you have a separate managed switch to fully exploit the OPNSense VLAN capabilities. A few APs and “Bob’s your uncle.” A few good APCs and a backup routine should be a no brainer.

`cd -` doesn't change to $HOME, it changes to the last working directory.

To go straight to $HOME, use `cd` by itself (no flags or arguments).

Quality cheatsheet! Categorizing these by 'Hardware' and 'Network' makes this a much more practical reference than a simple alphabetical list. Saving this one for later.
