Seems to me the easiest solution would be each host a replica. Now that you can get 8TB for something like a hundred bucks this would be both faster and more redundant if one would fail
If Beehaw chooses to leave the fediverse and defederate everyone, I wish them all the best, but I know I personally will not be joining.
I’ve had enough of walled gardens and private spaces, I chose the fediverse because Reddit started forcing decisions I didn’t like, like which apps I could use or how I interact with the communities I enjoy. The fediverse allows me the choice to choose what communities I want to subscribe to on my own terms, and that isn’t something I want to let go of easily.
There are downsides, there is noise, but that’s the role of hosting social media. It’s inevitable that as a community grows with more people who enjoy it, that there will also be people who want to tear it down. To me, that’s just a fact of the internet.
I’ll be disappointed, Beehaw is what inspired me to set up my instance and my communities and nurture my tiny instance - but I still believe in the fediverse. Welcoming differing opinions - not shutting them out.
You’ll need to learn a lot more about kubernetes to decide fully if you want to do it. I’m more or less telling you that yes there are ways to keep it highly available, but they’re going to be literally 10x if not more the amount of effort to spin up and probably maintain.
Proxmox has their own flavor of HA that is a lower level of virtualization. They’ll be able to failover a specific VM/CT to another node if one fails, but again pros and cons. The major annoyance for both is where do you put your data so 2 separate nodes can access it? Both k8s and proxmox have different approaches.
Correct, OPs needs is describing what kubernetes was made for. Fault tolerant container orchestration. Or any other orchestration framework.
However it’s a best to learn and get set up. Migrating all of my containers over took a couple of months of learning and trial and error. Each person has to decide is that level of effort worth it in a home application
That’s what I was thinking, but less… Fire hazard? I’ve seen some of those that are just crazy. Idk mostly need a board that can handle it. Idk just dreaming of a new project with spare stuff hanging around.
I did when family asked me. I said it’s a good way to play with spare cash that you have no qualms about losing. That it’s the most volatile place you can put your money, either making a few bucks or losing it all
Oh man there was one that I’ll never find again, I think it was on some XP keygen that I probably still have somewhere that I’ll never run again… There was an epic walkdown at the beginning of it that I can still hear
Not that having privilege personally is a bad thing either. It’s just opening you up to it, being aware of it. It also doesn’t diminish other negative things you went through.
I’m a white male. I probably have gotten jobs that were helped by that fact. I also grew up dirt poor only affording ramen and rice. One does not cancel the other out, it just adds to who I am.
However now being aware of it I want to move into a position where I can help change things, where I can help hire people not based on their skin color or sex
