    The storage requirements aren’t an issue anymore.
    You can self host everything for around ~$34 a month.

    @[email protected] runs an alternate bluesky instance (kinda) and he’s not bankrupt yet. Hell, it was on a free oracle server for a while.

      but can I use a random old computer I have in my house to run an instance as long as there are a managable number of users? renting a server isnt self hosting. making one yourself is self hosting.
