A second hand NUC off eBay

I email ePubs to my kindle, I’m told Amazon automatically converts them, I’ve had 0 issues.

But calibre can convert them anyway.

Totally. My setup is on a NUC8i5BEH.

Handles 4K Plex like a dream, all the *arrs, multiple website services. I have about 50 or so containers and it doesn’t get close to full CPU usage.

I started on PiHole, but when I found AdGuard Home I tried it and it’s so much better. My group chat that self hosts ended up swapping too.

The interface is so much cleaner and easier to use, anecdotally it’s so much more reliable. And have more features built in from the get go.

Plus you can edit it without having to refresh Gravity like in PiHole. Nothing major but it saves me a few seconds of time.

I run everything in containers, so I rsync my entire docker directory to my NAS, which in turn backs it up to the cloud.

I’m currently Ubuntu, but if I were to start from scratch this would be it, simple, basic, does everything I need.

Why not use Raspberry Pi OS? It’s based off of Debian.
