Maybe I'm doing the site injustice, but it smells like being run by some 4chan/ancap/"don't tread on me" bro.
The technical content looks great and yeah, I can applaud the person's cause.
It's just that I don't think the challenges of running your own server were ever just technical - if people have a motivation to do something, they'll learn much more complex stuff. The thing is that there isn't a lot of motivation for ordinary people to setup (and maintain!) their own server if some cloud megacorp archieves the same. So I think, you also have to explain why you should want to run your own server as a non-nerd - and I think starting with 4chan might archive the opposite here.

Could really be expanded upon. A small, not overwhelming "Why" section would probably improve it. I think this does raise an issue. If you wanted to suggest a change to this site it's not straightforward how to do it. It's clearly a community style resource because the different services sections seem to be written by other people.
The site's aesthetic wouldn't be my first choice, but I applaud the fact that's goofy and playful and not yet another boring, flat design that appeals to the lowest common denominator by not offending anyone.
So whats wrong with that anyway? Nevermind the 4chanophobia, but its telling that that is the crowd in most pursuit of freedom.
You say this as if being a 4chan user were some inherent, immutable trait, rather than a choice that reflects personal attitudes and values.
If the information provided is accurate and useful, so what?
