Backblaze is a great backup solution. They publish drive stats and even show you the hardware they use.

Welcome to the fediverse!
Definitely search for the communities you are interested in and click subscribe. There may be several similar communities on different Lemmy instances with different rules or vibes. Also, if the subscribe button says subscribe pending, you can ignore that.
Lemmy is amazing to be a “knight of new” as it were because the cross-talk, noise, bots, etc are just not there like they are in reddit. I’ve found communities I never would have known about.
Keep in mind Lemmy is very actively developed. If you do end up staying with Lemmy consider tossing a few dollars to the devs. I’ve always found the devs courteous and approachable when I’ve encountered a bug.
You’re good. Being a smaller engine though, I wouldn’t go much past that.
Try using 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 as the external DNS in your router for testing. Does it work then?
Also, you may have DNS cached somewhere. You can flush your Windows DNS cache by typing ipconfig /flushdns
in a command prompt.

From what I researched, the average lifespan of HDs and SSDs is no more than 10 years.
Is this running or not running though? I think a bunch of flash chips, properly stored, would last quite a while
You can host overseas and use a proxy for hosting. I mostly don’t worry about it though because I don’t do anything illegal.
Use encryption if you are concerned.
Probably has to do with geography and ad tagging is my guess. A US user is more apt to spend money on advertised products maybe?
I’ve used Hyper-V and in fact moved away from ESXi long ago. VMWare had amazing features but we could not justify the ever-increasing costs. Hyper-V can do just about anything VMWare can do if you know Powershell.

You’re posting hypothetical questions making assumptions (smart people used to…) with pre-determined responses to those who might question what you think is “logic” when pretty much anyone can see you’re likely a tween who found daddy’s vape pen.
Here’s a quick method:
Get the IP and set up the dns for the new server. Get a cert via Let’s Encrypt or self sign to get ssl working, and then start your prep.
On the new host create the new directory structure. Note your folders, paths, and permissions. Set the permissions on the pictrs folder as 991 (sudo chown 991:991 /path/to/pictrs/folder even if that user doesn’t exist on your system. It’s for the container.
You’ll need to edit your yml files, docker compose file, and make sure that the paths are updated, the instance name is correct, and federation is disabled (until testing is done).
Copy pictrs and db folders from old host to new. You can skip pictrs if space is a concern, but you’ll lose your instance pics.
Once done, copy over the containers and bring them up.
Check for errors and diagnose as necessary.
Once set, change the federation to on, switch your dns from old server to new, and then perform another sanity test.
It holds the receiver in place. Generally the ridged end is used for wall hanging installs, the flat end stores it away until needed since the desk is horizontal.
I’m doing what you want to do now. I’m running lemmy.fan on a NAS with really good hardware on a fiber connection. My ISP provides symmetric bandwidth and doesn’t block anything, though emails can’t be sent with a local smtp server since most places don’t trust the IP addresses of residential subscribers.
I learned a ton, I’m enjoying running things, and though it’s an open instance I don’t advertise it. I say go for it. Experiment and have fun. If it sucks and you hate it you just stop the containers.
Where you at in the world?
TIL, thanks. I wonder why they chose to do it this way.
In my experience it’s always a tokenized link, no clear text required.
When it’s someone else’s dumb thing it’s better for sure
