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.

I've been on the Fediverse since 2016, and I still get a little mixed up by how things work.

It's working well! I already had a VPS that was only running Mastodon and had plenty of spare capacity, so I just installed Lemmy on the same server.

One of the hosts I use (GreenCloudVPS) was having a 9th birthday sale where they were offering a VPS with 9 cores (old Intel Xeon E5 though), 9GB RAM, 99GB NVMe disk space for $99 every three years ($33/year). It wasn't doing much until I installed Mastodon on it.
