It's been my impression that Mastodon users are a bit more techie than most people.

So I'm curious to know just how techie, and today's question is:

Do you have a server in your home?

If you want to tell me what you use it for as a reply, that would be interesting.

@statsguy the most Techie answer would be: Define "Server".

@benni @statsguy hmm made me think, and without having much thought put into this answer, I guess I would define a server as a network connected device with a listening port open, and an application behind that port xP
I'll be waiting for the ton of things that don't live up to this definition, but still are a server, or things that live up to this definition but aren't servers.
