Careful, Claude is very sensitive these days. Might want to add ‘please’ and ‘thankyou’.

No, but I for one find it familiar.

what does the community actually expect from devs

I don’t think the average self-hoster actually realises what’s going on in the dev community. ‘Vibe coding’ is very different from AI-assisted workflows. All but the most die-hard devs are using AI in some way.

‘No AI whatsoever’ is unrealistic and if that’s your red line you’re gonna see a smaller and smaller pool of things you can download and use.

There would be people wandering around saying things like 'hey I’m a total noob can I use this as a home server? ’. And greybeards muttering insults under their breath.

The real arch store would be pretty basic. Everything in plain cardboard boxes - basically just the self-service area in IKEA.

Only has diplomatic relations with corporations and billionaires.

Two years? It hasn’t really been ‘America’ since the 70s.

Used both Hetzner (storage) and Netcup (VPS), no issues with either.

• Yes, but I also use podman on another machine.

• Proxmox server hosts LXC’s and a few VMs.

• Proxmox makes it extremely easy to run and manage containerised workloads. Set it up in a flash and it runs happily, no intervention necessary. Podman containers on the other hand can be tricky to set up, but I prefer the controls I have on that machine. If it needs to be secure I Podman it, if not I just stick it in a Proxmox LXC.

Makes sense but I didn’t see it coming.

I’m still using an old Apple TV. I’m not happy about it but haven’t found a good replacement yet.

There’s a few interesting options for software in this thread. In terms of hardware - maybe a NUC or something? Would have to be small, quiet and relatively cheap.

Modern problems require modern solutions.

Right in front of my Mao?

Ooh you’re in the matrix.

Still can’t get over the closed-source OS part. How do you know its privacy-first if you can’t verify it?

I thought I’d take a shortcut and use AI to help me setup an arch thing I’m working on. Jokes on me, took two days and in the end the thing was so fucked its irrecoverable. What a waste of a weekend.
