Same. I’m using a 2012 Mac mini running Proxmox attached to an OWC Thunderbay 4. It’s old but does everything I need it to do.

Amateur data hoarder here; teach me your ways

I see people listing things I’ve never heard about…I thought I had spent a considerable amount of time on the old sub and knew stuff. Guess I gotta hit the books.

Right now though I’m hosting everything on a 2012 Mac Mini that’s running Proxmox.

Been using these programs for awhile now:

• Photoprism
• wireguard
• web blog testing instance while the live one lives on linode
• plex
• filebrowser
• pi-hole
• homepage

Nothing crazy but cool stuff to learn in my day to day. I want more hardware but I’m about to buy a house. It’s crazy how much I’m throwing at an 11 year old computer and it’s handling it all quite well.

Same. I’ve been diving into Linux and open source and self hosting lately anyway, and at the same time you’re telling me open source social media is a real thing and gaining in popularity? Count me in.
