I’m just going to be vulnerable for a minute here. I met the first person in real life who had similar server-y linux-y obsessions to me and we’d send eBay links of systems to drool over to eachother. They ended up being a terrible person but hid it from me pretty well until they couldn’t anymore and now I no longer have someone to chat with about those things.
So um, I guess I’m open for applications for the position of “nerdy friend who I nerd too hard with about network infrastructure and Linux packages” now

!selfhosted@lemmy.world is one of the biggest communities on that instance (and therefore also likely one of the biggest in the entire fediverse, since that instance is so big). In other words, I think you might be right, LOL.
