"Grumpy Grognard". Do we have flairs on Lemmy? I can subtitle myself, grumpy grognard.
Fair point that laptops aren't really the use case, though there have been times I've wanted to try things out on my laptop - actually that's a reason I still want to learn podman or docker, because I hope it's a way to try server-y things on my laptop without polluting my system, and being able to cleanly uninstall.
But okay, space on servers. I have a VPS with 20gb storage. And that has to include my backup data that lives there.
FYI on the origin of the term grognard. https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/grognard
My experience with it comes from he RPG/wargame realm. It's not necessarily meant to be derogatory.
