Checking back in here… Is this a safe space to avoid AI and GPT talk?
@tclementdev Separately, remember when error/warning diagnostic messages were *wildly* terse and unhelpful? Glad that’s changing, at least.

Uhhh.. why is Iggy Pop and co hanging out in the server room?

@ramiro Oof. What round were you?

After waiting a 1.5 years for it, I was hoping I might end up with a v2/3/4 hardware rev.

@bryanjclark 👋 Any suggested games I should check out?
Who here plays Playdate?

Looks like I can self-host all of those for under $40/mo.

Managed equivalents are equal-priced or single-digit $/mo more.

All in all, not terrible if you care about owning your data and have the appetite to learn (and maintain) some sysadmin things.

Also, the svelte customer experience of whitelabeled services under your own domain. :)

Did some planning for services I want to self-host today (equivalents for Airtable, Zapier, and a web analytics service).

Suddenly understand why AWS has felt unapproachable for so long.

Choice of EC2 instance family + size revolves around:
- Architecture (x86_64, amd64, arm64)
- Memory
- Steady-state CPU usage
(in approximately that order)

Discovered:
- Baserow, 4GB, amd64 > t3a.medium
- n8n, .5GB, arm64 > t4g.micro
- Plausible, 2GB, arm64 > t3a.small
