Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I was affected!! It's so strange, first time something like this happened to me, it's like I won a local lottery or something, don't know what to feel now.

All my newer files are still there, but the older ones and all bin, zip, tar and 7zip are not there anymore.

So glad I started the homelab / self-hosted thing a few weeks ago, I have copies of everything locally on multiple storages.

Do you have any tips or tutorials to begin the homelab/self hosting?
