For me it’s been communities like /r/buildapc, /r/buildapcforme, /r/buildapcsales, /r/gamedeals, and /r/consoledeals have been useful throughout the years.

    Sysadmin, networking, homelab

    Begs the question. Is there a way to request a new community on beehaw?

        Thanks!. Found it just after the comment. There was a instance called infosec.pub the other day that seemed to have some promise. Seems down now as well.

            Yeah I sent the admin a note via dm and it was back this afternoon. I’m thinking just the web-ui was borked. Not sure. Also unsure if it was correlation or causation.

              Nice, appreciate it. I wanted to check it out earlier but it was still offline. Your comment reminded me to check back.

      Same here, it was nice to have a global water cooler to see what peoples experiences with various vendors tended to be, and just to hear what was going on.
