  • description: I’m finally doing a full tour of the services I’m running in my homelab in 2026. In my last homelab video, I focused on the hardware. This time, I’m breaking down the software and services behind it all: Proxmox, TrueNAS, Kubernetes, Docker, monitoring, media, home automation, document management, AI tools, and more. I cover what I run, why I use it, and how it all fits together across my home lab and co-location setup. Thank you to all of the open source projects in this video.
