Another vote for Synology here. I have 2 RT2600 and 1 RT1600 between myself and my parents houses. They have been completely bullet proof and the oldest one is going on 7 years old now.

FYI, I don't always see local posts (although I'm trying to explicitly take a look at the local tab once per day). If you post stuff that you hope I'm going to see, please @mention me so that I don't accidentally ignore you!

Are you speaking from first hand experience? I don't have experience with commercial satellites, but I can say from direct experience that scientific satellites and other spacecraft absolutely run a (real-time) traditional OS these days (and even a decade ago). That said, we do take serious measures to secure our vehicles. I don't think I want to say any more than that given the nature of the discussion.

I think you're underestimating the number of requests that a server can handle. Even my tiny instance currently sees dozens of requests every second and is very lightly loaded. A single request per minute is an immeasurably small load.

AFAIK, you can't load comments on posts manually. You only get comments that are pushed to your instance after someone has subscribed to the community containing the post.

It's a brewery in Southern California. No wait, it's a small rock.

(Serious answer, it's a unit of measurement equal to 14 pounds.)

Good to see some anecdotal evidence that people have found us here. From an admin perspective, there's not much of a way to get insight in to this. As you pointed out, the ~300 subscribers is a good indication that there are users from other instances subscribed here. There's no easy way to tell how many other instances have at least one subscriber, but for every instance that does have at least one subscriber, posts from this community could show up in the "All" feed of anyone on the instance, so that has some potential to expand the reach somewhat as well.
