I've put all my skill points into arguing with blinky lights

Alright, time has come for me to finally move into my own self-hosted instance. You will be able to find me here from now on.
@tost Looks great, thanks! Should I look into some official docs on how to set up or is there something better?
@tost seems like your move to misskey went quite swiftly, so how's the resource usage now?
@xjix Yeah. I think NDN would be more appropriate for a speedy mesh network, based on something faster than LoRa, like WiFi. But it's gonna be a lot harder to build such a network from both technical point of view, since WiFi already has a lot of specialization into non-mesh structures, and in infrastructure point of view, since WiFi trades range for speed, which is the opposite of LoRa and requires a lot more community buy-in.
@xjix Yeah, that's a good point, and would be a very good thing for more content-oriented networks. Yet in communications usualy is unicast or manycast, and very rarely something is broadcast or anycast.
@xjix NDN looks cool, but not quite fit for what I'm looking to build. LoRa has very low available bandwidth, with speeds more similar to modems than modern broadband internet, which makes it a lot more fit for simple communication (text, audio with good compression and signal) than to content delivery, on which NDN seems to be more focused on.
@xjix Haven't looked an NDN yet, very interesting, thanks! I myself was looking on how to take on the privacy angle with encryption and routing.
@hj I just got my wage and this threatens me with bankruptcy right after.
@tost @xjix I can almost understand what you mean past "lingvoj", but esperanto is way too alien for me to catch any meaning.
@xjix I want to experiment on building a low-bandwidth mesh based on LoRa for a low latency simple messaging within a city, or a village with well placed nodes.
