Sounds like you need some more hobbies to throw at it. :-)

You could always inflate the numbers by giving it artificial load but I imagine that breaks a ToS somewhere.

I was going to recommend Logseq as well. I use the git plug-in on laptops and Working Copy (git on iOS) and some automations to sync it on mobile.

I also have around 3GB used for pictrs and I’m not really sure the best way to see what all content is in there.

+1 to using a subdomain. You’ll probably have a much better time even if you get a path working.

It’s not the cheapest but I use a DigitalOcean instance to do what you are describing. I’ve been burned by VPS hosts and I’ve enjoyed the complete lack of drama or downtime with DigitalOcean.

For port forwarding I’m using Private Internet Access and gluetun. I don’t really recommend Private Internet Access and, like you, I’m interested in a better solution. It’d be nice if I could use ProtonVPN’s port forwarding but it looks like that only works if you use their app.
