If you deployed with docker composr you just change the image and hit redeploy. Super simple.
Just configure your outbound SMTP to use sendgrid or some other. SMTP provider. I realized this isn't 100% self housing then, but you could still self host the inbound mail. Self housing outbound SMTP just isn't worth it for most people IMHO due to spam lists.
Thin clients off eBay. I picked up a Dell Wyse with 8gb memory, 4 cores, 16g emmc, and a 256G M.2 SSD for about $40. Includes the case, power supply, power button, etc. Still uses very little power. Install the x86_64 version of dietPi on that and it's been Rock solid running my docker projects.
Also picked up and HP T620 with similar specs. Haven't started using it yet but I expect similar results.
Much better deal than RPi and for most use cases equal or better able to do the job.
Leprechaun in the hood
Bought.. I'd forgot what I was missing. It's like a warm hug.
Great for daily mindless scrolling.
Still has a ways to go before it's as useful as reddit was for searching for specific information tho.
I switched all my donations to cloudflare. Tried out pork bun and did like it but cloudflare is so good. I do hate in principal that they force you to use their dns, but in practice I want to use them for DNS anyhow. Their ZeroTrust tunnel is pretty slick too.
TIL 8ton of coke is only worth $660
When I put my car in reverse I'm sure to say..
"This really takes me back"
Hopefully the algorithm will improve over time - compared to the site which shall not be mentioned, I find that Hot or Active tend to show the same articles for days (despite there being plenty of newer content). Top Day works well the first time I log in for the day, but then that gets stale too. On the front page I feel like I need more like a "Top Hour" option ... so I can see what is new without the "drinking from the fire hose" that is "new".
These are the early days, Im not unhappy with where we are, I just hope this remains a work in progress and improves.
I mean.. not MUCH before
