    We have 2 and I would get a 3rd if I could lol (with a bulky protective case etc. so I can be less careful)

    The most cost efficient way to go is buy the cheapest version and then put something like this in it https://www.westerndigital.com/en-il/products/internal-drives/pc-sn740-ssd#SDDPTQD-256G

    IMPORTANT NOTE: MAKE SURE YOU GET A 2230 SIZED NVME DRIVE. 2280 drives will NOT fit.

    If you don't want to do that you can alternatively just get a big micro SD card and save the SSD swap for later For best speeds you want it to say A2 and a 3 inside a U.

    Even besides playing video games it's an awesome little mini pc. Not perfect but awesome, and an amazing value at $359.

  • My question then is what is a good neutral 3rd instance?

  • Small Streamers / Content Creator Community?
  • That's what I do so that's where my head is at, but I actually decided to make it ANY form of content creation for the time being.

    Any thoughts as to what instance would be best for this? I chose lemmy.world due to its size, but am open to any and all feedback.

    I'll try to start populating it tomorrow

  • Small Streamers / Content Creator Community?
  • It is twofold. one: support in general, and creating a schedule where people watch each other together and greatly boost the likelihood that that stream will be suggested to someone else. Engagement in the chat also greatly boosts the likelihood that new viewers will comment/stay longer.

    The other thing is full time streamers live a very specific kind of life that is generally very different from most people. I feel there is value in congregating with other people with the same goals and mindset.

    By having a community with schedules/party trains streamers learn about each other and form friendships, and in theory everyone wins. I'm ok with streaming to 0 people and then people watching it later but it's a lot more fun when you have all your friends in the chat with you.

    Additionally, certain games (like among us just as an example) are way more fun when you're playing in a voice call with people you know as opposed to random people. Having this sort of community makes a lot of games fun that otherwise wouldn't be. High skill multiplayer games might take months of learning to get good at, but if everyone is new this isn't a problem.

    I will think more about what could be done to mitigate the potential issues you mention, but from what I've seen the best way is just to remain small and have a strong focus on community building. Beehaw seems to already have a very compatible culture, although I must admit I am new here.

  • Small Streamers / Content Creator Community?

    Hi all,

    I'm new to Beehaw, but have been enjoying the enviroment so far.

    Me and my girlfriend are twitch streamers (I also upload to youtube), and I was wondering if there is a community here for small content creators to help each other. She uses Discord for that but I don't care for it personally.

    I didn't see anything when I searched, but that very well could have been user error as I'm new to the fediverse.

    Thanks in advance!
