       I just read 2 consecutive posts, one about people growing their own food and the second about self-hosting (and how hard it is for most people). And I think we can really draw nice parallels between the 2. They are both positive things we should aim for, but the entry cost is high and they will never totally replace our shared infrastructures (food production or hosting). (1/2)

       It’s easy for people already fluent in any of those scenes to forget how difficult it can be for newcomers to enter. So maybe next time someone tells you “just self-host!” you can answer then “just grow your own food!” Or vice versa.#Selfhosting #homegrowing (2/2)

       @triple This is good. I agree. There are definitely times when someone asks the #linux equivalent of “what pot should I use to grow herbs in my window planter” and they get a #selfhost reply “keeping a cow in your back yard gets you a lot more food and it’s not that hard.” I am sure I’ve been that guy (with the cow advice) sometimes. Gotta meet people where they are in order to get them to go someplace else.
