I have a Pixel 8.... a PC with Linux Mint. How do I learn to "self host". Mainly for photo storage backup. Where do I start? I know nothing, absolutely nothing

Another +1 for YUNOhost. I went from zero experience self-hosting to having my own email, fediverse instance, file server and several websites on a VPS. I would never have had the patience to figure this out without it.

So, for all you ^5'ing Yunohost, I have a question that's bothered me for years. Like I said, their app catalog beats anything else in it's category, but they also list apps that don't work....separately of course and labeled as such. I've always wondered why. Is it in hopes that someone will fix them? ....or what?
