Speaking from my own experience: it’s fun to hold boobs, even moreso if they’re not your own.

Regardless of what tool OP ends up using, this is the most straightforward way.
Infinity love for tiny voids.
First off all, the components are selected for the Linux compatibility, so it’s guaranteed to work. But they also provide some tools to make sure you use the preferred drivers, a control center tool for customising fan speeds, etc. All of which are open source. They even provide the windows drivers for all configs for when you want to dusk boot (and those are even fairly up to date).
Bought my last few laptops from Tuxedo. Their 13" infinibook can be quite noisy, but I’m having a blast with the Polaris I bought last year.
How long does the plant last? Asking for a friend.
Dick the birthday boy? What are you doing here?
Mister Plinkett? What are you doing here?
If you’re in Europe, I can recommend Tuxedo Computers. They specialise in making Linux based computers, and are highly configurable.
Can he phase through walls? :o (Wild cards)
Generally speaking, lemmy is much more cpu bound than it is bound by bandwidth - so the added bytes don’t matter that much. The example above was just for 1 community. Now imagine the user is subscribed to a dozen communities, but doesn’t even browse lemmy that day. That’s probably thousands of api calls made to keep his server on sync, and 0 requests saved.
Like the big instances have literally hundreds of thousands of workers running in order to get all the updates out. If one of those calls fails, it gets put back into the queue for retry.
OP asked if having his server added to the lemmiverse would alleviate the load “Like with torrent”. That is demonstrably not the case - it only adds more workload on the other servers, with a break even point that’s highly variable. Yes, your server will be nice and snappy, but the origin servers have to pay the price - death by a thousand papercuts synchronisation calls.
So you need just 15 more users on your instance to break even, if you have 17 in total, you’ve saved 10 calls.
In this particular example, yes. But only if those 15 people subscribe to the exact same communities. If they don’t, the calculation gets even more complicated.
I’m not sure why exactly you’re opposed to federation when that’s one of the biggest points of fediverse.
Some people seem to be under the impression that setting up their own personal server is relieving the pressure on the network. What I trying to get across is that’s not the case, unless it’s being used by a reasonable amount of people.
I can’t tell you what the sweet spot is - but my guess would be that it’s only going to be at least several dozen, more if their interests (subscriptions) don’t overlap very well.
Super useful info! Thank you for your research.
Yes. Once for every post, comment and vote.
So say you have your own personal instance, and you use that to follow community news
on lemmy.world. If throughout the day that community receives 10 new topics, 50 comments and 100 upvotes, it would have to make 160 calls to your server.
So when you decide to read those 10 topics (if you even read all of them), you would then make roughly 10 api calls.
You would be saving those last mentioned 10 calls by using your own instance, but at the cost of 160 calls made throughout the day.
It happens. Remember the original meaning of the word hacker, versus its public perception? You can hang on to the original meaning and have an extra hurdle in communication, or you can accept it and move on by being more specific.
At any rate, I think public/private keys are already being used by Lemmy for authentication on the way you propose.
My bad, I thought you meant the other crypto (as did everyone else, presumably). I know cryptography was first, but I think it’s safe to say that that abbreviation has been irrevocably tainted.
That would be good to know, yes. And unless someone has a definitive answer, it would also be interesting to know how much traffic you’d still be receiving if you kept it off for a week, or a month.
I would think that updating 50.000 Lemmy instances would have a similar performance effect of 50.000 Lemmy users browsing one instance.
Only if the users are browsing All their watched communities 24/7. Otherwise they would only be producing load when they’re interacting with Lemmy.
I’m not sure when or if other servers will stop pushing, but did you unsubscribe from all communities before doing so?
Would be interesting to see if that would stop incoming traffic.
Kitty is just rewarding you with petting break for using proper design patterns in your code!
