Just running stuff that only really sees use by two people on my server eats up 16GB of memory. I can't imagine what it'd be like with more.

@doxxy: I've been wanting to setup everything from the ground up again to see if I can minimize the footprint but it's a lot of work.

@doxxy: Just in case I come back to this I can compare htop pics!

@doxxy *tries to whistle and just ends up making an indistinct noise* That is a Whole Hecking Lot of cores.

@frostwolf: It's also part of the reason I wanna rebuild things on the server. Hosting stuff for other people on some nice hardware sounds like a good thing.

@frostwolf: The only real issue with hosting from home is the upload speed. 50 Mbps up isn't the fastest thing in the world and collocation costs are astronomical since we'd need 4u of rack space which would be several hundred USD a month minimum.

@doxxy Oof, yeah.

And that'd be effectively 50 Mbps /down/ for anyone hosting servers... game streams might be okay with a few people watching but not with tons.

@frostwolf: Mhmm. Though we host a whole suite of thingies. Mastodon, Owncast, Pixelfed, Jellyfin, Funkwhale, FreePBX, Matrix, and Nextcloud. That and some random websites that I use or fiddle around with as web dev projects.

@doxxy ooh, wow, nice! Lotsa stuff.

Over here we had Masto, we roll our own streaming, and besides that it's just personal websites. Had a Nextcloud, until it unceremoniously broke and we have no idea what's wrong with it.

@frostwolf: I really want to roll my own for a lot of services as the more software I reach out to use the more I don't like it. xD
