Tbh the 196 drama was more fun to be here for than when I logged in on 12/30 to see Dansup had been having a meltdown for six hours straight over 3rd party apps
He's deleted everything now, as he should have. But the damage is done.

Lemmy had the same problems, mostly solved with some indexing and caching so far. It's gonna be fun when Lemmy needs to start partitioning and tiered storage, which it absolutely will when costs start to add up. Hosting an instance isn't getting cheaper
Yep. Was talking to a friend about setting up a team speak server when their new app drops but I'm not sure what the costs would look like for a stable server. Or if I could just run it on my local server.
I mean, that kinda goes against the self hosted ethos, but it'd probably run fine on Oracle always free.
Like, I host everything on my local server, but I've got symmetrical gigabit, and all my user (family, some friends) are on my tailscale network.
If your friends are willing to use tailscale, or something like that (you can do most of what tailscale does yourself, but that involves quite a bit of work), it'd be pretty easy to host at home. There are several ways to make whatever you host reachable from the public internet, but that usually makes everything a much bigger hassle.
My power costs for my server (Ryzen 5 3600, GT710, 16 GB RAM, 10TB storage) are usually 10-15€ a month, which is worth it to me. You could do a lot with a way lower spec CPU, but that's what I had lying around.
