This is exactly what we’re planning.

I am done done done with the pressure, the incessant need for connection, only to reach out and find that people on the whole are just fucked up.

Where are the relatively normal people?

The measured people, the people who do not have a insane opinion about guns or politics or how people should live their lives?

Where are the people who know right from wrong? Good from evil?

It’s tiresome. I want to be friends with a donkey, stare at some landscape and see my days out in peace.

I feel this.

What is the actual point of publishing knowledge bases and documentation if nobody reads them?

Carrot. I’m making a carrot cake today.

B.A.M.O

Block and Move On.

Windows. Because I can run WSL alongside the industry standard business tools such as Outlook etc.

It’s the best of both worlds for me.

I like that.

Life can be overwhelming. Small adjustments can go a long way.

I take stock.

What are my personal positive achievements?

Where am I right now, is it a good place?

It doesn’t have to be my final destination, but is it good?

If I strip away all the fringe and lingering bullshit, am I safe and happy in this specific point in time?

Like right now: I am on the couch drinking coffee on a Saturday morning. I have three dogs with me. I am safe and I am loved.

What happens tomorrow is future zombie_kong’s problem. Not todays.

Edit: you got this. It’s nothing. A mere blip in this adventure we call living.

Nope. I can stop whenever I like.

Fully in control.

Nothing to see here.

No downvotes. I use BAMO.

Block and move on.

I’m here for memes and boobs, ain’t nobody got time for dickheads.

Wow. That is a crazy backstory.

Thank you for taking the time to explain.

Thank you for responding.

I agree, the Ansible route is very daunting and does negate the user friendly appeal of Federated social media. But, it’s early days and I am hoping there will be an emergence of one-click installs soon.

This is digressing somewhat but what’s the deal with Lemmy / China / CCP? I’m a relatively normal 40 something. I just want to use the internet in a normal fashion.

I’m not alone.

Compute was never an issue. I had my instance hosted on Hetzner and it ran just fine.

My concern is the storage, as described above, constantly checking disk space, cronjobs, purging etc etc

And whether I host a single user or a multi user instance is neither here or there. My question still stands.
