@nelson Case in point (sorta): Fediverse. As far as I understand, most servers are clusters of people, not just single-person instances.

@nelson Yeah, 'community hosting' rather than just 'self hosting' I think is a more useful path to pursue. Most people do not have the technical skillset/time/budget/spoons/reliable internet access/etc. to self-host everything or anything they use/need; but if *someone* in your community has the skillset, and the combined budgets and capacities of the community can come up with the rest, then you can get a lot farther, include a lot more people, and leave fewer people trapped in corporate hell.

@nelson I think the family computer should be able to host like five small services for just the family (file storage, music & video streaming within the house, contacts server, family calendar) & that it should be made very easy to do for free & have it be stable & reliable. I think anything bigger like email or social networking should be hosted by the family's autistic catgirl friend or something like a public library but for computer network services instead of books.
