I’d disagree with this.
VPS is opposed to a dedicated server, and actually is a kind of shared hosting because as a VPS user you a allocated a ‘share’ of resources on a machine where others also have a ‘share’ of resources.
Shared housing more typically refers to simpler web hosting where multiple users have their website servers from shared hardware.
At this point I’m limiting what I access and where. I’m targeting a more 1990’s internet experience. I love learning and technical stuff and would miss it if I went off grid, no matter how tempting that is.
I’m actually really trying to play devils advocate… But I’m struggling.
I came to get away from the main stream socials.
I came to minimise my farmed data footprint.
I came to find other like minded people.
These principals alone are shared by quite a few I guess.
If we end up hooked up to the machine we were trying to escape from then coming here was near pointless.
The biggest thing killing Lemmy for me is needing a seperate account on every single instance if I want to participate in anything on an instance.
I thought this wasn’t how it was supposed to work.
I saw this post on another instance and tried to reply this exact message but got an error saying I couldn’t.
Using Liftoff if it matters.
Have had this issue myself asking with other DD card related issues.
I can’t understand why the pi foundation persist with using SD as the only physically practical storage option.
They’re looking post the point of needing a way to snap on reliable EMMC storage, as a default, in a way that doesn’t leave a cable or something permanently plugged into a USB port.
Sure, USB is a fine option, but I hate that it’s only an option and not a designed default.
Most of us only need 8GB or so for the OS, 8GB or good quality durable EMMC should hardly cost anything.
Other tiny computers and even economy notebooks and Chromebooks already use this.
