Yep this has been my hold up. It is mostly just a solution in search of a problem.
The best use case I have come up with is if you have an nice computer and an extra GPU laying around. You could turn the single computer into two workstation/gaming computers.
What is she using it for? Creative cloud is a huge blob of programs, is she using them all? Or just a handful?
Take the leaf put it out in the sun.
Are you sure. I was thinking those specs you would be more in the 50-80 watts range.
So I can say "I use Arch by the way."
Realistically I don't see how it would ever not be managed by a corporation. Your average person doesn't know how and doesn't want to manage their own messaging system. They are just going to offload that responsibility to a corporation to do it for them. We are just going to have exactly the same system we have now. Just called some else besides email.
I wish there was a better solution but I am not seeing a way that doesn't just end up the same as email.
Isn't the current email system kind of a web of trust. Microsoft, Google etc.. trust each other. But little me and my home server is not part of that web of trust making my email server get blocked.
We need something better than email.
Say everyone agrees and the entire world swaps to some alternative. Email 3.0 or whatever.
Wouldn't we just have the same issue? Any form of communication protocol (that can be self host able) will get abused by spam. Requiring a lot of extra work to manage.
Dang that is a bunch of fixes.
My thumb got tired of scrolling lol.
I have upgraded my GPU on my desktop without upgrading anything else. Leaving me with a spare GPU and no other hardware.
Self hosting, I have also pulled GPUs out of systems to keep the power requirements down. As most of the time onboard GPUs are just fine for Self hosting applications. Also leaving me with a spare GPU.
However over the years GPUs have because more popular for processing there are more arguments to keep the GPU in a home server. So I can see how this is going away.
