[GLLUG] Steadfast Self-Hosting workshop

[Adam Monsen]

MJ,

Great to hear from you and I wish you the best. I've been curious about 
Freedombox, and also TrueNAS SCALE. I've only briefly reviewed them and 
I hear they work well as "appliances". You might find my book useful if 
you want to spend time on practical and ideological fundamentals of 
self-hosting, and try DIY/from scratch self-hosting.

Since you mentioned Wordpress (which of often used for public blogs): My 
book would be helpful learn how to self-host a private Wordpress 
instance. I focus on feature-rich apps kept LAN-only (with perhaps VPN 
access). I discuss threat modeling in the book as a way to decide what 
is opened up ("WAN access") and what is kept private.

I'd love to hear what kinds of setups and which particular apps are (and 
aren't) working well, and I hope we have the chance to get together in 
London!
