here are some perks from a rented server because apparently people easily forget the state of things in the wild and why we gave that up in the first place:
- reliable power
- reliable fast internet connection that won't keep from tooting while someone dl an image
- comes with people to watch and fix your hardware quickly
- better physical security than your house, from fire risks to it being stolen
- won't draw a big target on your home connection which yknow is a critical point for many people
@CobaltVelvet I don't understand how people can serioulsy think about hosting anything from a home connection when the upload is like 5 mbit/s
@gargron yeah it's like when rich people don't even understand what it's like to not be rich
@CobaltVelvet how much can a banana cost, michael, $10?
