Not everyone likes the way these images are built, but the liinuxserver.io containers are so easy to use. You can replace so many cloud services using these, I've replaced:

• All streaming platforms
• Google drive
• Google photos
• Every note app
• The library (sorta, I just host an ebook server for manga that won't fit on my reader)
• Grocery lists
• Exercise tracking apps

Plus I've setup some awesome new stuff like a website for one of my collectives and a few things to automate server maintenance.

You need somewhere to host your services (I'm using an old PC) and a little linux experience, but it's absolutely worth giving it a crack. I might work in the industry but I learnt more making my little server than I ever did on the job.

Not really „free“ but „mostly free“: Each week you can get a different game from the Epic game store
