The Dragon Reborn by Robert Jordan.
The first two books flew by. Things are changing a bit. I'm still having fun but Im going to take a WoT breather after this one.

This. In addition, I've read that it's best practice to make adding and removing services less of a pain.
You're not messing with stacks that benefit from extended uptime just to mess around with a few new projects. Considering my wife uses networks that the homelab influences, it would be a smarter choice for me long term to change things up.
I wouldn't change anything, I like fixing things as I go. Doing things right the first time is only nice when I know exactly what I'm doing!
That being said, in my current enviroment, I made a mistake when I discovered docker compose. I saw how wonderfully simply it made deployment and helped with version control and decided to dump every single service into one singular docker-compose.yaml. I would separate services next time into at least their relevant categories for ease of making changes later.
Better yet I would automate deployment with Ansible... But that's my next step in learning and I can fix both mistakes while I go next time!
What is the Ansible link for? Are you using Semaphore or some other UI for playbook management? I'm trying to get into automating deployment tasks for my Homelab and am trying to learn Ansible to do it.
Pretty sure there's a lot of us looking for codes. Maybe a community dedicated to code-trading would be smart, instead of posts like this.
I just pushed through to about 3/4s in and am once again hooked. The beginning was a bit of a slog compared to the first two books pace.
