How much time and money would it take to set up and maintain a server similar to disroot.org, offering the same services, for a group of ten people?

    @gooba42 @ailurocrat I appreciate your perspective on accessibility in tech. You're right that the industry often overlooks beginners, and I'm glad solutions like Mail-in-a-Box and Mailcow exist for those who need them.That said, not every resource needs to serve every audience. This article was specifically written as a technical deep-dive for people who want to understand the underlying mechanics, whether they're learning system administration, troubleshooting issues those one-click solutions abstract away, or making informed decisions about their mail infrastructure.There's room for both approaches: turnkey solutions for those who need email working quickly, and detailed technical guides for those building expertise. Different resources serve different needs, and that's okay. The "normies" you mention aren't stupid at all, they're smart enough to choose the right tool for their needs, which often isn't a manual FreeBSD setup, and that's perfectly valid.

    Actually y'know what i'm just gonna shoot this shot. Hello tech and sysadmin people of fedi: if you're running an active IRC server. Can you give some pointers on setting up an (out-of-network, so not really connected to any other servers) IRC server for a very small group? Also some pointers for stuff like Anope/similar management tools. I'm not exactly server-savvy, since my experience is writing 100% offline software, but i'd like to get off discord with my friends.#irc #selfhosted #adviceNeeded
