Setting up a watchdog and crash kernel might help or let you diagnose it

Take a look at https://diskprices.com/ for the best price per TB. Backblaze has been pretty great about sharing their hardware specs and builds. Maybe get some ideas from them https://www.backblaze.com/blog/open-source-data-storage-server/

Ssh includes a built in socks proxy. What are you actually trying to accomplish?

Let us both hope for those kind of scaling problems due to popularity 🤞

Wow, bold decisions for what it'll support and not. I like that it's laser focused on a specific use case. What do you think about the impact to instances' federation queue when a bunch of single user instances follow a community? 10x the traffic and queue for 10 single user instances than one instance with 10 users.

I ask this as someone that ran a full single user lemmy instance right up until recently and switch to a public piefed due to the traffic multiplication and other concerns.

Why not a tor relay? If you're not an exit it is pretty darn safe. How about a tor snowflake proxy too? Even easier and safer.
