We use it at Neighbor.com for a lot of data analysis in our marketplace, things like our price recommendations, supply and demand balances, etc.

If you're feeling a little adventurous, you can find Intel N100 boxes with 4-6 NICs: https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/cwwk-topto...

Went down this route and haven't had any issues with heat or having to replace heatsinks, add fans, etc. that others mentioned, but your mileage may vary.

Runs opnsense on proxmox, along with some other containers. It's been a great little box.

Postmortem report from withpersona.com resulting in ~12 minutes of complete service unavailability and several hours of varying degrees of degraded service.

It's not entirely clear to me after reading, but the author addresses it somewhat in the article. Seems like it depends on the persistence of the crawler, if the host instance permits that info to be shared:

> In the example above, if Ringo were to reshare John's reshare of my status - John doesn't know about it. Only the original poster (me) gets notified. If John doesn't share his social graph, it might be possible to work out where Ringo saw the status - but that's rather unlikely.

> Mastodon has an API rate limit which only allows 80 results per request and 1 request per second. That makes it long and tedious to crawl thousands of results.

> Similarly, some instances do not share their social data or expose anything of significance. Some servers may no longer exist, or might have changed names. It's impossible to get a comprehensive view of the entire Fediverse network.

- Bitwarden: Been great for sharing passwords and other secrets. We moved to it from LastPass, never tried 1Password, which seems to have a lot of proponents here

- Syncthing, Restic, Backblaze B2: Syncs photos and other files from devices to a NAS, then Restic to create backups locally and on Backblaze B2. For the in-laws and others, I make sure they're backed up using Google Photos or Apple iCloud

- Jellyfin: Streaming our own movies and shows.

- Tailscale: Connect to the home network from anywhere

- Caddy server: Reverse proxy in front of the services like Jellyfin

- Paperless-NGX: Document repository that's hooked up to the scanner and email accounts to keep things organized.

There's a few other ones that get some use, but we use the above almost daily.
