Long time ventoy user, here. I absolutely love this software, there's always a usb stick with ventoy and a bunch of useful isos in my pocket.
The really intriguing feature is the ability to run vDisk files (as long as there's a linux distro within it) thanks to the VtoyBoot plugin[1]. I'm actually trying to build my own customized arch version with all my software (and potentially keys) installed so I can get rid of having to bring around any hardware.
The only problem I'm facing is that it seems that ventoy boot does not work very well with luks containers.
Since I'm a big user of proxmox and all my systems are debian-based I recently began to use proxmox backup server also for my physical machines! It's quite fast, supports defuplication and I can donwload or mount backup archives.
It sadly lacks a good ux, but I'm still evaulating it because pbs is a tool that I'm already using heavily, so I don't mind reducing the amount of individual software needed to carry on my work.
As the title says, what are your opinions on self hosting a mail server nowadays?
Just as a challenge to myself, I tried to set up a mail server in my personal homelab and I successfully made it not being marked as spam or rejected. It's still an early-stage experiment for me, but it has run for the past 6 months without a problem.
I also wrote a blog post, describing how I got there, I'd like you all to take a review and give me some comments or opinions on how to make the content more useful and easy to read (don't be cruel, please, it's my first post!).
