From the post:

>Building on my last post about the Gemini and Gopher protocols, I realized I wanted to take a step further in helping others reclaim web autonomy and sovereignty. So I'm writing this guide. A few months ago, I wrote about permacomputing and computing for the apocalypse where I briefly spoke about self-hosting and creating your own homelab. But I did not get into the "how-to" at all. I want to do that today, because I took another swing at creating a homelab, and though there was a lot of trial and error, I was overall really impressed by how much capability and functionality you can get out of old, inexpensive hardware.

Fun fact: Poal (dev instance) was initially running on a Pi 2, to test new features, before rolling them out on the main VPS.
