Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

That's a hell of a good deal!
You could install Docker on windows, that would make hosting most common services pretty easy. Hyper-V would let you run VMs if you needed to for some reason.
The setup seems quite beefy relative to anything I ever owned. I understand that my power bill will be more costly if I leave this running 24/7.
Compared to 4 RPi’s running 24/7, how much more energy do you suppose I’ll be expending?
I ask because my basic understanding of electrical engineering states that my system will only draw as much power as it needs (not the full rated 650W), so I’m not really sure how that compares to all 4 RPi’s running.
You're correct that it won't draw 650W. You could get a power meter or a power measuring plug and measure the energy consumption.
