I work warehousing; no IT background, I just like to tinker with whatever. Have since I started breathing.
I was a fairly casual pirate, grabbing movies/shows I couldn't find elsewhere (or just couldn't afford). Got into Plex/Emby for my first real exploration into self-hosting (if you don't count SRCDS and/or Minecraft Server at like 13yo); and expanded my knowledge from there. Reverse Proxys, the 'arrs', DNS, Docker, VPNs, etc.
Now a days, I've got 20+ services that I mostly access via a VPN I host, and I'm always interested in messing with new things :)
