i started this project on a laptop with plex, went to my old PC and some old work PC’s, but they were too crappy to do alot with.
but now i am finally confident enough to say this homeserver is stable. it’s been running for 2 1/2 months now without any downtime and it runs everything i need! (i might also add a MC server someday idk)

It’s not to keep it up untill power is restored. It’s to keep it up if it was a minor outage and cleanly shutdown if it isn’t.
If some is using it purely for weathering an outage they’re doing it wrong.
