Anyone still using an old Proliant Microserver as NAS? (lemmy.public.ismaelrh.com)

Despite being 13 years old, I use it as NAS with Unraid and works great. Not for computing of course, for that I have a HP EliteDesk Mini.

How do server upkeep costs look like for fediverse stuff? by pyreneer in c/[email protected]

I see four options:

  1. Server owner assumes all costs of the server. Possible if instance is not huge (ideal on a federated environment) or owner has money and will to do it.
  2. Accept donations from users
  3. Require paid subscription to access (and thus becoming private otherwise anyone could still access the server from a free instance)
  4. Run ads on site. Same as 3, users would migrate.

So I only see 1 and 2 possible
