Where did you learn so much about Docker? Having a server at home, I'm more inclined to spin up a VM. I would like to learn more about Docker.
If I'm honest, I've stumbled nose-first through pretty much everything I know. I am never afraid to break things as long as I learn from it.
Just get started somewhere. I ran traditional VMs for most things before and I would never go back unless it was necessary for something.
Easiest way is just to start using Docker for some service you're hosting that has a public image available and go from there. If you want a more visual approach there's stuff like Portainer you can use too.
Also get started early on with docker compose, it makes it much easier to organize your container configs.
