Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Buy the cheapest graphics card with 16 or 24GB of VRAM. In the past people bought used NVidia 3090 cards. You can also buy a GPU from AMD, they're cheaper but ROCm is a bit more difficult to work with. Or if you own a MacBook or any Apple device with a M2 or M3, use that. And hopefully you paid for enough RAM in it.
An M1 MacBook with 16GB cheerfully runs llama3:8b outputting about 5 words a second. A second hand MacBook like that probably costs half to a third of a secondhand RTX3090.
It must suck to be a bargain hunting gamer. First bitcoin, and now AI.

Patient gamers at least have the steam deck option now
Ok. I get it now. I've been trying to build something cheap as a Linux gaming setup and I've come to the conclusion that I'm better off buying the steam deck.
I think an older Ryzen and an RX590 can be had for decent prices, no?
Yeah, but the form factor of the steam deck makes it more appealing if I want to set It up in the living room
