@grahamdunning This sign-up guide by @FediTips isn't a server list per se, but it's packed with super useful tips for choosing one:

(Same goes for all of their articles really)

@grahamdunning Not my practice, but as far as I understand, people tend to just order PCBs at specialized labs.
Some labs even populate the board for you, i.e. no need for hunting down parts or difficult soldering anymore. Also, the labs will have more choices of PCB material (think RF, or USB-C compatible stuff with a defined thickness), will do multi-layer boards and vias, print silk screen and solder resist, produce solder masks ...
A web search for "order pcb" brings up a few brand names.

@mizkirsten@mastodon.social Apropos of nothing, I was playing with a web-based Teletext editor and traced the theindiebeat.fm logo.

@docpop@mastodon.social Beautiful! ❤️
I'm reminded of a local activist and their sprouting cabriolet -- a car filled with soil in which plants grow, to protest against the small cost of parking in public streets vs. the bureaucratic nightmare of renting the same space for urban gardening: http://christophschwarz.net/cabriobeet/
