Video from GamersNexus on the importance of self-hosting, with some nice references like Rustdesk, Tailscale and Cory Doctorow

But I didn’t understand, when they were showcasing a rack computer starting at around 20:20, who Wendell (the guy with glasses) meant with they who made that computer. What platform is that, what’s its name?

    In Wendells own video he’s mentioning 45drives, a custom server manufacturer.

      On the one hand they were talking selfhosting and then they pull out multiple $10s thousands rack servers. People don’t need a data centre at home to sync some files, pictures, email and play some media!

        Wendell and Serve The Home in general have totally lost the “home” focus. Sure, I love reading about cutting edge 800GbE transceivers… but they hardly ever cover actually practical home stuff anymore. Their network switch reviews are the only thing vaguely applicable left.
