I’m writing my own novice guide to setting up a home server, the stuff I wish I’d been told when I started. Would love feedback from beginners on how useful this is, as well as feedback from veteran self-hosters on how accurate this is, and I welcome suggestions from anyone about what I should add next.

update: tweaked the introduction a bit, corrected title to match header, added note about podman-compose v1.0.6 incompatibility.

      You’d need to log into your router to see if it’s enabled. Assuming you’ve got standard consumer grade stuff, it’s likely on by default because it makes things like console multiplayer 'just work’s without needing someone to go in and port forward stuff.

      Before I built my home network, any Linksys/Netgear/etc router I used had that disabled when I was doing my initial setup.
