  • I’m able to get a lot of gear secondhand through my job, so I’ve got:

    One 2u Intel server running proxmox in a ‘cluster’ (circa 2013ish. Added RAM and upgraded the CPU/storage.)

    One Intel nuc with an i7-7th gen as the other host in the cluster - only one VM is set to fail over between the two if needed.

    VMs:

    • Plex
    • 2x PiHoles (one of these is the failover VM) (these also have a few docker containers like Uptime Kuma.)
    • Windows arr box (I know it’s blasphemy but I felt more comfortable doing that stuff in windows)
    • anything else I want to mess with because the server really doesn’t run that hard.

    Network:

    • Sonicwall TZ 300 (incl a perpetual VPN license)
    • Unifi 24 port switch (it’s gigabit and POE but doesn’t output enough power for the…)
    • single Unifi AP.

    All acquired over the last couple years for the low low price of “it was going into the trash anyway”

    The way I’ve been using is to use the Vivaldi browser’s inbuilt adblocking. Comes with the added benefit of syncing to other devices and background audio playback so I can lock my phone and still have audio playing.

    The mobile version of the website is also functionally identical to the app, sans advertising.
