@DonutsRMeh@lemmy.world recommended this on is the last similar thread to this one: Dell OptiPlex 3050 Micro. The price seems right and you could probably run good many other Docker containers in the future.
I think the mods deleted under rule 3 which really doesn’t make much sense to me. If you are going to self host and you are starting with equipment recomendations, who better to ask than the people who selfhost. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Dude, I do not pretend understand the inner machinations of a Lemmy mod. Rule 3 seems a blanket coverage for a lot of threads. But, I’m still out here repeating your recommends. Seems like it would be a jammy server for Docker containers at a good price.
Haha. No worries and no hard feelings towards the mods. This little computer has been a great machine for a bunch of things running on it. I installed debian on it and went to town. I’ve even made my Synology NAS a mounted storage on it and switched everything to debian. Thing’s been a champ with no hiccups.
Ever since you posted that, I’ve been tinkering with the notion of replacing one of my Dell T320s with just such a unit. The Dell T320 have been good servers but cost me about $35 USD per month to run, whereas the Dell OptiPlex 3050 Micro you recommended would cost me about $3 to $5 to run per month. So, just in power savings alone, would pay for itself in less than a year. The Dell T320s put out a decent amount of heat as well, and aren’t so quiet…which doesn’t bother me as much since I’m clinically deaf. LOL

How does rule three apply to a comment? lol. I’m not the poster, I’m replying to a post that doesn’t break Rule 3. Oh well. I tried
I think they nuked the whole thread.
Lmao. Why?
