Plus one to this. It’s super nice separating concerns in this way.

I’ve heard this out two ways:

Buy nice or buy twice

And when paying for the more expensive

Buy once cry once

there was no easy way to do it on a reasonably sized machine.

Why? What is the issue?

+1. Made the switch when mullvad lost port forwarding. Works quite well with Gluetun

You might have missed a word in the title. They’re looking for single player.

That was indeed the case. I suppose the comment didn’t contribute much.

Just tired of seeing perfectly solid comments being downvoted with no reason provided 🤷

Downvote without explanation. Nice!

The modlog is public on lemmy

…What are you talking about?

Ah yeah, fair enough.

@piotrkulpinski@lemmy.world you might want to look into disabling error reporting in production 👍

There’s a submission link on the top of the page

Search seems broken. The following gives me a “Something went wrong” page

While I don’t disagree with your sentiment, it seems like this list is just “self hosted open source alternatives”. Even if there are better options, Gitea still falls under that definition, no?

People in this thread have very interesting ideas of what “shit hardware” is

I’ve become a big fan of mini PC’s for home server use these days (with NAS systems for storage duties). Low power, low heat, low noise, and very affordable.

Beelink on Amazon makes a good selection of them. Always watch for sales. I have several of their machines and have been pleasantly surprised by all of them. The latest addition was one of their N95 systems with 8GB of memory. It hosts Jellyfin, Deluge, Wireguard (client and server), dns, forgejo, etc.

They are for sure talking about the ARM servers from Oracle. You get 24gb of memory and 4 cpu cores that you can carve into virtual machines.

Issue is that the free stock is very limited, and there have been some claims of people having their free service resources reclaimed by Oracle.

Still, if you can get one, it is probably the best you can get for free.

I use a VPS from RackNerd for all kinds of things (my personal Lemmy, for one). Have had it for two and a half years or so with no complaints.
