My ultimate goal with learning this is I want to self host my own Monero node and eventually maybe even self host emails and after that learn docker as well.
But I am a long, long way from there.
Where do I start with something like this if I have no experience with networking?
Should I just start with learning a VPS? I just don’t like the idea of me not being able to physically control the server because I think one day Monero might be outlawed or something.
But I’ll do whatever I have to to learn.
I know a VPS is a simple thing in theory but sometimes it’s a lot for a beginner.
A VPS paired with Docker may also unintentionally expose something not meant for the outside world due to it ignoring iptables and ufw
