Replacing my #raspberrypi 4B server with a #thinkcentre m93p.

The #thinkcentre has more ram, a 512 GB #sdd and can handle external drives far better than the #raspberry does.

Finally, also lucky to get rid of #rasberrypios in favor of #debian and #arm in favor of #amd64 .

I think I will first migrate #apache2 with #nextcloud, and then the E-Mail server (#postfix & #dovecot) in a second step.

The latter is probably more difficult.

Now on #trixie. The raspberry still runs a 32bit version of the raspberrypios, so a new installation was necessary sooner or later, anyway.

Took this as the occasion to also replace the hardware with something better.

That resonates with me. For an OS that traces its heritage directly to Debian, it sure feels different and not in a good way. The 64 bit variant pulls directly from Debian repos.

I don't share your disdain for ARM but of course my desktop is an AMD Ryzen and my primary server, a Xeon.

I think I'd like an ARM host with decent performance and proper I/O for a server.
