Yes, very good points. I am not a ML expert by any means, but it does seem like companies are in a bit of an arms race right now, and are just trying to grow large models without doing it properly.

After Reddit changed their upvoting to not be a 1:1 (meaning 1 upvote means 1 person liked it), I kind of started wanting to move away. It made it really hard to track how popular something is vs how promoted it is.

I listened to the interview of Apollo’s dev, and the interviewer brought up a good point (the only good point I’ve heard on the other side of this). Natural language models are becoming very popular, and lots of companies are building them. To do this, they are scraping the web, and especially places like Reddit. It sounds like Reddit wants to capitalize on this by increasing their API’s to these (absurdly) high prices.

I’ve been using this one without issues for years. https://a.co/d/iTasHwu

Thanks! I had tried it, but I end up going back to pihole for the GUI <3

I’m getting about ~800-900 Mbps down and ~15 up (a bit more than what I pay for). I did notice that when I saturate the sownly speeds, my CPU will max out and I’ll start getting latency spikes to the point where the traffic stops on the network.

After looking into it and adding a buffer bloat rule/ limiter, I’m not having any issues. I guess that’s the price of running IDS on 7 VLAN interfaces, but it’s getting by. When I go 10Gbe I will definitely pick something a little more capable, but it’s great for 1 Gbe

• Protectli microappliance running pfsense with all my VLANS/ DDNS/ IDS and OpenVPN to connect home
• Some cheap Tp link 1Gbe managed switch (next on the upgrade list)
• RS1221+ 8 bay NAS with 60TB raw (used to hold media to serve Jellyfin as well as Proxmox VM backups)
• Intel NUC running proxmox (Home assistant/ Jellyfin/ Pihole/ Whoogle, etc)
• TP Link EAP 660HD AP (most recent upgrade, and very happy with it, previously had been using OpenWRT/ Luci on a R7800)

Also hoping to get a server style UPS soon, which reminds me, I have to go check if there’s a homelabsales community here :)

Definitely trying one for my next build.
