Honestly if you use Claude just tell it to set it up for you. I have a truenas server running on a cheap $500 dell office PC that I got from Best Buy and it hosts pihole and a ton of other services like a password manager and Nginx etc… I just use the truenas mcp and give my agent access to stuff and let it manage it for me. I’ve been a software engineer for 7 years now and I still hate managing it myself. Ever since I realized I could just use ai to do it for me it’s been a major burden lifted. It’s no longer a hassle for me to manage it.

Bro did it

You know what I just realized since America doesn’t use metrics we’re even further isolated from the rest of the world because I have no clue what those temperatures mean
