@hardypart
Agreed; I was more concerned with the possibility of the vast bulk of communities ending up on a couple instances rather than having major communities spread out. Having some way to keep similar communities connected and effectively moderated would be a great boon for us. How we best go about that, I’m not sure.

@AlmightySnoo
I’d rather not see one instance become overly dominant, it just acts to centralize content and puts undue strain on that instance.

@Kayzels
In my experience it can take a while (upwards of a day at times) for your instance to cache content from others that you’ve subscribed to.

@Angry_Maple As someone who uses Keepass, I highly recommend KeepassXC over the regular release. There is an open security vulnerability that the original devs aren’t really addressing: www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/… the XC release team has mitigated this and has generally been better about improving the UX.

@proycon Proxmox on an HP Z620 (2x Xeon E5-2670, 16 cores, 64GB RAM)
Inside of that I run:
Emby
AMP (game server software)
Moodle (for content development, currently idle)
Home Assistant
Paperless-ngx
Grocy (just installed recently)
+ an assortment of VMs for various purposes

(Edit: for anyone who uses Proxmox: I find the scripts here tteck.github.io/Proxmox/ to be very helpful is quickly spinning up LXC’s)

I also have an OPNSense firewall, a Pihole, and a Synology NAS.

Other than my game servers and Emby, which get port forwarding through my OPNSense firewall, everything stays internal to my network. I’m thinking of learning wireguard so I can remote into my network, but that’s not a high priority.
