How do you self host? Do you use a NAS? What kind of backup system do you use?

I’ll consider self-hosting once I have a decent internet connection :D

I think that’s the main reason they’re trying to build robots. I once read a post by a security expert who said a group of very wealthy people paid him for advice on how to prevent their guards and servants from killing them in their bunkers after the end of civilization. His advice was to become family by marrying their children to the guards’ children, but I suppose using robots instead is much easier.

Very good

Google Photos has a great search engine – I can look up “dog” and it will find all the photos with a dog in them, or search for a place and find all the shots from there. You can select a face in one photo, and it will find all the photos of that person.

The albums are awesome too, since you can share them so all invited people can add their own photos. Perfect for weddings, birthday parties, and events in general.

Those email services differ in aspects like file size limits and available storage space, yet you say it doesn’t matter which server we choose. So, does it actually make a difference or not?

For me, the problem wasn’t making a choice, but not understanding what that choice meant. It felt like we were expected to know exactly what we were signing up for without any explanation on the page. I assumed the “I don’t know, help me” button would lead to some clarification, but it just scrolled down by about a centimeter :D Everyone says it doesn’t matter which server I’m on, but I just read here that there are some banned servers, whatever that means. On the server I choose, will I see all posts from all users across all servers, or are there communities that are only available on one server?

So it does matter which server I choose? Will my choice mean I can’t see all the posts from every server?

The problem isn’t the choice itself – it’s that we don’t understand what we’re gaining or losing when picking a server. There’s no explanation of what a server is on the selection page. Does it really not matter which server I choose? Are the communities the same across all servers? If someone posts something on one server, will it be synced to all servers? My wife doesn’t know what the word “server” means, and I think most people are the same. Or are we expecting only IT folks to use the platform?
