Looking for nice software to selfhost on very moderate hardware these days is like:
"add this to your kubernetes cluster // terraform something....// This is your docker compose file..."

I just want an efficient program, bare metal, also not three reverse proxys in a row.
And also I'm not running some supercluster in the "cloud".
Seems everyone virtualizes everything and abstracts everything, containers in containers in VMs. Even "normal" mastodon hosters, I mean I understand if people use it for running something like running Instagram, OK.
And then many still have quite often some downtime because (I guess?) in all this complexity, that exists to add reliability, there are config errors or incompatibilities.

I Love I've found snac and the prosody xmpp server, they run on a potato, snac only since this year, prosody since 10y, started on a raspberrypi1b. And they have no downtime. I want more like that. I don't know the right Hashtags. Is this #permacomputing? I guess that's even much more basic and closer to the hardware?
