what low-maintenance are you referring to? I have a server at home running proxmox and a container for docker. It hosts a website (caddy), website comments system (cusdis), sync, calendar, mail, mqtt, gps tracking, note taking, at one point i had home assistant but i dont have enough IoT to make use of it so i just stopped it. I check on stuff like once a month or maybe two months.
I'm referring to: updating the software (and making sure with the changelog that there is no breaking change I have to adapt to), dealing with issues (it's not the first time my server is down and I have to investigate..), and occasionally do migration (if a software becomes abandonned, a tech becomes deprecated..)
