The best way is to self-host those services on your own server. If you're interested I'm here to help.

I am interested, but don’t have the infrastructure for that

Do you have a rpi3?

Nope. None of that. Not the tech guy I’d want to be haha. But these things intrigue me tho

It's very very easy, just need a bit of curiosity and the will to make, you just need about $100 of hardware and an internet connection with a roter that you control.

As much as I’m interested in those things, I’m equally scared about them aswell

I have two old laptops laying around at home. Anything I could do with those?

You can use them, but being on all the time they spend more energy than a SBC.

SBC?

Single board computers, raspberry pi, odroids and so on.

You can install yunohost on a rpi3 with a micro SD, or ssd if you want more storage.

I’ve started researching self hosting in the past couple of days. Have a tower pc hanging around that I’m tempted to turn in to a server

Would that be possible with two old laptops aswell?

I guess so? I haven’t started yet, just researching
