Yeah, when you're a technology enthusiast, it's easy to forget that your average user doesn't have a home server - perhaps they just have a NAS or two.

(Kidding aside, I wish more people had NAS boxes. It's pretty disheartening to help someone find old media and they show a giant box of USB sticks and hard drives. In a good day. I do have a USB floppy drive and a DVD drive just in case.)

Hello fellow home labber! I have a home built xpenology box, proxmox server with a dozen vm’s, a hackentosh, and a workstation with 44 cores running linux. Oh, and a usb floppy drive. We are out here.

I also like long walks in Oblivion.

Man oblivion walks are the best until a crazy woman comes at you trying to steal your soul with a fancy sword

lol yeah, the lemmy userbase is NOT an accurate sample of the technical aptitude of the general population 😂

It's pretty disheartening to help someone find old media and they show a giant box of USB sticks and hard drives.

Equally disheartening is knowing that both of those have a shelf-life. Old USB flash drives are more durable than the TLC/QLC cells we use today, but 15 years sitting unpowered in a box doesn't have very good prospects.
