Have I went overboard? Any suggestions? Or help? I travel a lot and don’t have a lot of time when I am home to setup and configure.
I’m using Cloudron on Linode for some things because I have StarLink and haven’t figured out how to connect via internet to my LAN yet. I can use VPN with the router but it seems wonky.
2 NAS
2 Raspberry Pi’s with DNS servers

Several Docker containers on one of NAS
A Raspberry Pi with DietPi. a 1TB attached drive and Docker Containers.
Cloudron on Linode for when I’m away from home.

You do need your own domain name but I got one on namecheap for like $15 per year. It’s worth it.
You can go so much cheaper than that as well, I’ve had .xyz and .party domains for less than $2 per year with namecheap
