A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

My server in my home costs me a lot less than 30/month to operate. Since this is a hobby for me I don't assign a monetary value to the time I spend working on it. I built the server with second hand components that I got at a swap meet for less than 700 dollars. Now knock on wood things have been running smoothly and I do a lot with this server. It doesn't just power Lemmy and Mastodon, but it also does my Jellyfin and NAS. It's probably overspec'd for my needs but that means I can use it for a long while.
