Same! I pay nearly double what I was paying for 100mbps but it’s worth it. As soon as the service was enabled in my building I signed up straight away. In the same place 3 years ago I was only getting 14mbps as my only option!
Yes and no. MacOS is basically the year of the Unix desktop for a while now and it’s still powerful and user friendly. Just fire up a terminal and it’s Unix. The benefit they have is hardware control so stuff just works and no driver hardware issues etc…
The Ansible method is easy and worked fine for me on 22.04: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible
Just remember to setup ssh without a password using this command from your local machine:
ssh-copy-id yourserver.com
I’m surprised some large instances aren’t using Cloudflare. It takes a few minutes to setup and the added benefit of caching alone is worth it. Let alone the bot/ddos protection.
I have on servers as I run my own lemmy server. I do like Linux desktop but macOS just works for my work and home laptop.
