No worries it wasn’t an attack on you or your totally fair question. I’m no where near knowledgeable enough to give any valid responses to the inquiry, I just thought I’d share why I feel like I (we?) need it. I wanted to do X for my community and I was told I need Y to do it, thus for me for this use case its necessary. That’s all I was sayin.
I made a Gemini site once and then I was like “that was fun” and then it was over. 😅
I run a website where my community and I all contribute to a free shared database that houses settings for machines we can use. I don’t know how I’d really do that without managing every single submission manually. I think that like all things there’s a way to use js responsibly.
I’m on arch so its the highlight of every morning 🤣
They had to give us something for all that telemetry to keep their entirely educated and tech savy user base on board. 🙄
Its a good suggestion and something I’ve considered. Unfortunately we’re using conduit as our server and that type of integration doesn’t seem to work well outside of synapse. That said I know some people have gotten it working I just need to dig a little deeper. It’s a chore for sure but it seems like the only path forward.
I wish I could convince my giant discord community to go anywhere else. It’s so fucking hard. I’ve built IRC networks and a matrix server. I host every fediverse app imaginable. I hate being attached to this company and my income being reliant on it.
I think this is the answer. If I could log into my World.me account and cancel my Israel subscription they’d really be feeling the hurt.
Unfortunately for the world - our taxes don’t get distributed that way.
So do I and I did the same and it was so easy. I felt hella privileged sitting in that chair this year.

I’ve been curious about running a hardware firewall/router, I’ve seen it discussed but don’t know much about it. I also hear a lot of people swear by their proxmox setups but I am a complete noob there so again more research would be required. What I’ve heard about running a proxmox setup has looked overwhelming at a glance.
yeah a TV box was definitely pretty high up on my possible uses list.
lol I haven’t heard the “RAID is not a backup” before but it’s true I’ll have to see how I would manage that and what data would be a good candidate for this implementation.
I have a ton of handhelds I usually use for this purpose and a pretty powerful workstation I use to run heavier games but I’ve thought about like a tv box setup for doing such activities in the living room. Could be fun.
Another good suggestion. I’ll have to look into how to get this set up I haven’t tackled something like this before.
Thanks I have a dark corner or two, this sounds like an interesting idea.
Thanks for the response. I currently am housing something like 24TB of data give or take so unfortunately I don’t think they’d make effective backups. There’s simply too much. I have my current storage array in RAID6 so that’s my backup solution at the moment.
Indeed, seems the only path forward. Thansk for sharing.
