I community dedicated and in love with the idea of self hosting their own software yet avoid a self hosted alternative to a hostile service...
I actually don't think anyone in the subreddit is actually self hosting anything and if they are the irony is heavier than actual iron.
As more of an outside observer here:
When I was still using Reddit, it looked like most people in that community were just running personal home media servers using basic as fuck raspberry pi setups or just old hardware that could handle it, like maybe a modded Xbox or something.
Here on Lemmy, it looks more like you're all actual networking specialists hosting damn near everything from home automation to business-level server systems for your home business. You guys are serious; Reddit isn't. Respect.
At the end of the day, networking specialists are in the minority by a considerable degree
I'm on both but got into the weeds thanks to reddit. The mods over there tried making an independent forum but it never got the momentum lemmy got.
Yeah I think someone even commented how was the donald selfies but not them lol
I don’t think most people here are self hosting Lemmy instances
Yeah I'm not either that's not the point. The point is using an alternative that is open and can be self hosted.
