How can someone without programming skills make a cloud server at home for cheap?
Lemmy’s Spoiler Doesn’t Make Sense
(Like connected to WiFi and that’s it)
Not programming skills, but sysadmin skills.
Buy a used server on EBay (companies often sell their old servers for cheap when they upgrade). Buy a bunch of HDDs. Install Linux and set up the HDDs in a ZFS pool.
Or install TruNAS and chill.
I went with Linux and BTRFS because I just need a mirror. Lots of options and even more guides.
Cheapest is probably a Raspberry Pi with a USB external drive. Look up “Raspberry Pi NAS,” there are a bunch of guides.
Or you can repurpose an old PC, install some NAS distro, and then configure.
There are a ton of options, very few of which require any programming.
The easiest way is NextCloud.
Yes. You’ll have to learn some new things regardless, but you don’t need to know how to program.
What are you hoping to make happen?
Debian, virtualmin, podman with cockpit, install these on any cheap used pc you find, after initial setup all other is gui managed
