I would very much like to move from Google and Microsoft and other proprietary, non privacy services.
I have spent hundreds of $ and thousands of hours trying to setup various different services on various different platforms and every single one of them has been difficult, annoying, frustrating, and ultimately fails.
I have concluded I am just not the guy to do this as I am Windows CAD guy and have no idea what I am doing with networking, Linux or CLI. 90% of the words and terms in tutorials are greek to me.
I am looking for notes (Joplin), Google Drive replacement (NextCloud?), and email (??) on a cloud server. And then video streaming (plex or jellyfin + *arr?) and photo management (immich?) on my local machines.
Let me know if you are interested or know of somewhere better to post this.
Lol, a thousand hours would be 6 months of full time work (40 hour week). I’m not sure I’d employ someone who has 6 months of IT experience into a systems administrator job and task them to build a an erp/dms/unified coms solution for a client.

But this guy should be able to do it as a hobby?
they don’t want to do it as a hobby. they want to have other hobbies.
