Factor in power bills and heat and noise into your calculations.

Also opnsense, but on thin client.
I hear you, but Proxmox does a great many more things than just run containers. Admittedly, many selfhosters won’t need these.
It’s a NUC so sufficiently poweful. Proxmox isn’t fat by any means. If you run your stuff in containers then Proxmox (I aways install it on top of Debian) is your hypervisor is your base system. You typically don’t install stuff on your hypervisor, though I do some very select things.
Proxmox with Debian containers.
RTO would make me go on medical leave for a couple years. Then on unemployment for a couple years. Then work for a bit. Repeat if necessary until retirement.
You’re probably drawing about 400-450 W.
My current supplier rate is about 0.6 EUR/kWh. I make some 1/2 to 2/3 of my power myself, for a price that’s less than half of that.
How many W are you pulling, on the average? Or kWh per year.
My primary consideration is all the expensive storage filled up by vapid image macros. 80 GB goes a long way for just text.
Pictrs should have been an optional microservice by default. Commenting here to keep track of this thread since this is useful.
I’m only missing a hole in the wall to do the same – and I could be running a 2x 40G link!
But the switch idles at 80 W and a starting jet noise level, so the hole in the wall will wait.
YaCy indexes http content, so if your documents are all reachable via a http interface they can be indexed.
Burnout is something a lot more serious. It usually takes many months to years to recover, if you recover at all.
Nice to see so many non-technical users. It’s good for diversity. HackerNews, Tildes, Hubski and Lobste.rs already cover that sphere pretty well.
Works for me. Perhaps transient load or code upgrade issues. I should start running my own instance when the code base has settled down.
Your instance might not allow it. E.g. I don’t see the option on lemmy.ml but there is one on lemmy.world
Ubuntu for quite a few years but I’m going back to Debian next.
I only come to Reddit to check the status of my data takeout request and use teddit to check out /r/modcoord and /r/redditalternatives though they’re winding down. Migration complete, after 3 years.
I would look into thin clients and Lenovo etc. tiny PC for office on eBay. I run old low power low noise rackmount Supermicros which are nice but hard to find at low prices.
