Wireguard is the way to go. I like using wg-easy to use wireguard because its easy to set up in a docker container.

Cool…I worked in this school once that blocked any website about calculus because of the “cu” part of the string that means ass hole in my language. It was funny.

I use navidrome + tempo and I’m happy with them…sometimes I feel like the shuffle function is not that great…I get some tracks way more often than others but then I just press next…

As everyone have said, it depends on what you want to have in your server. I started with an old lenovo I bought in mercado livre for 200 BRL. It was a DDR2 PC with 4Gb ram. I bought an ssd and installed Debian. Used for years. After that I tried to build a DDR3 PC. Made it with 800 BRL and it’s decent to run my docker containers like an arr stack, nextcloud, VPN, reverse proxy and vaultwarden.

Cool!
