  • We are a subset of a subset of internet users, you rarely heard people in the wild advertising Reddit either.

    Not to go full ‘Eternal September’, but I would almost argue that around the time reddit was talked about on more mainstream platforms is around the time that reddit started going down hill. Subs started getting harder to keep on track and moderation began going off the rails.

    On the plus side, shit like “le narwal bacons at midnight” started to die off too, so it wasn’t all bad I guess.















  • I docker’d all of my systems a few years ago, and I’m so glad I did. So much easier to manage, and when I lost a system I was able to get most of my services back up and running with minimal configuration on a VM same day.

    As for hardware, you might check and see if you’ve got a local reseller of retired business equipment. Before I moved, I had a place I went to from my work that accepted shit we were getting rid of that disposed of stuff and resold at a bargain the stuff that was still good. I got more than one hp tower from a few years previous that ran (and still runs) like a champ. Felt like night and day when I upgraded to that from my Pi setup, and they were only like $35 each.
