Fedidb does that for instances, but not individual communities. Might be easy to add though.

Maybe overkill, but Peertube can definitely do that well.

XMPP is generally nicer to host due to lower resource requirements and better server management in general. The mobile apps are also more snappy and need much less battery, plus notifications are more reliable.

Matrix has somewhat more public rooms of FOSS projects you can join, but typically these projects are also available on IRC, which you can join via the excellent Biboumi gateway for XMPP.

I mean, yes by all means, but how is this related to Solarpunk?

Its is commonly done with S3 compatible storage, and projects like Garage allow to do so in a distributed way.

Neither Bittorrent or IPFS seem particularly well suited for this.

Maybe Nextcloud hosted by Hetzner? https://www.hetzner.com/storage/storage-share/

I didn’t say TV is social media, I said social media is like TV is the sense that it is a one-to-many medium. I could have also used TikTok to explain the difference, but people here are clearly confused about the destinction and it would have been less clear.

pseudonymous forum where its not common for users to become friends or know each other

This isn’t really true for regular commenters. There are even feuds between specific users and so on. I agree though that there are constant attempts by some people who try to make Lemmy more like social media by advocating for dissolving the destinction between communities and instances to turn Lemmy into a dumb meme and news posting app for entertainment purposes.

Mostly bad, but running AI models on Vulkan surprisingly isn’t any worse than ROCm, so there is little point in using that it seems.

First of all I would recommend you use Piefed instead. Easier to setup and maintain.

But I am not sure exactly what you want that Lemmy/Piefed instance for? As an internal forum of sorts? That can work, but is not really what it was developed for and there are better (non-federated) options.

If you want it to be an actually federated instance then the Rasberry will not cut it. The desktop might, if it has some good SSD storage for the database.

For in game voice-chat the simplest option is a Mumble server. Very low resource use and runs great on a Rasberry like yours. Otherwise you could also try setting up a Movim instance. It has text chat and voice/video calls that should reasonably work as a Discord substitute for small groups. It is also quite low resource and should run fine on that Rasberry.

This is another example of the natural abundance there use to be and that people have forgotten about.

I would love to comment on this, but unfortunatly I lack time and energy 👍

Social networking is about connecting people, which Lemmy as a forum does. You could argue that the function of Lemmy as a link aggregator is more social media like, but I doubt people would consider an RSS feed reader to be social media either.

Social media is like TV, a one-to-many medium, usually with some sort of feed curation to promote certain topics.

No, it is a social network. That’s different from social media.

Ovh should work.

You could also try https://movim.eu/

It is XMPP based and supports a/v group calls and screen sharing. Voice channels like Discord are planned.

That depends on the usage, see: https://www.xda-developers.com/smr-hdds-are-fine-for-your-nas-until-you-try-to-resilver/

If you keep this issue in mind and avoid resilvering / balancing they can work just fine in a media storage NAS.

They use a lot less power too. For small home NAS they are really an often overlooked option.

If you have a Wi-Fi router in your home you are technically already running a server. With OpenWRT even quite practically, although sadly most routers are slighly too underpowered to do much with them.
