I don’t know why the Pi is so expensive where I live. It is like $200 USD equivalent.

I wish I can find them for that much. They cost way more where I live

I know nothing about self-hosting, only want to self-host my photos
Hey everyone. I really want to replace Google photos with some sort of self-hosted solution. However, I am getting overwhelmed. The first thing that came up when I did a little bit of research is buying a NAS. However, I just noticed these devices are so expensive with really weak specs. Feel like I am getting ripped off. Also, I heard that it can be slow? Is that true? Anyway, I was told it is better to just buy a Resperry pi. However, these things are expensive for the specs. Would a used Intel NUC be better? Can you use any mini pc for that? I have seen some crazy powerful (compared to the pi) cheap used Ryzen mini PCs, can those be turned into servers?

I think you can replace all social media with a decentralized version, except YouTube. Reason is cost and monetization.

Communism is no different from full-blown capitalism. I don’t get why people choose I have to be a either capitalist or socialist. There are certain things that some elements of socialism can be good for, like having free healthcare. However, when it comes to the market, you want as fewer restrictions as possible without hurting the customers or companies growth, as that can be bad for the economy.
