Your home server might have the required bandwidth but not requisite the infra to support server load (hundreds of parallel connections/downloads).
Bandwidth is only one aspect of the problem.
That solves the media distribution related storage issue, but not the CI/CD pipeline infra issue.
Exactly the same rationale as mine.
On Ubuntu, replacing Firefox/Thunderbird snap version with actual deb version.
Remember NOT to store any private data or login to any account as this VM is not hosted on your system.
Use this server just to test out distros quickly.
If you just want to try a Linux distro out, you may use https://distrosea.com/
This is exactly what came to my mind while reading through the article.
