👋 Start Here: Introduce Yourself
Before you dive into workflows and Docker containers, let’s get to know each other. Drop your intro below - keep it simple. 🎯 What to share: - Your name (first name is fine) - What you’re currently automating (or trying to) - Your biggest automation pain point right now - One thing you hope to build here No need to write an essay. A few sentences works. I’ll go first: I’m Kjetil from Stavanger, Norway 🇳🇴 Principal Consultant with 15 years in IT - specializing in Azure Cloud, DevOps, and automation. These days I’m deep into self-hosted automation with n8n, running everything from a $10 Hetzner server. I got tired of watching SaaS bills climb every month and losing control over my data and workflows. That’s when I went all-in on self-hosting. Now I run n8n workflows, TTS, video processing, and S3 storage on a single server. I use Airtable as my CRM and orchestration hub, but everything else is self-hosted. I've been experimenting with NocoDB (open-source Airtable alternative) and replicated about 80% of my Airtable workflows - completely self-hosted. I'll be sharing those templates as I build them out. Outside work, I love tinkering with Docker, GitHub, and homelab projects. When I’m not deploying containers, I’m hanging out with my wife and two kids. Why I built this community: Honestly, the self-hosted automation space is a mess. You’re piecing together info from 47 different YouTube videos, praying your Docker containers don’t break at 2am, and there’s no clear path from “hello world” to production. I want to change that. My goal: Help you build automation that saves money, runs reliably, and doesn’t hold you hostage to subscription pricing. Now you - drop your intro below! 👇
