OMG, I've just realised that my new home Proxmox server, a very cheap (and tiny - that's an 80mm fan) but beautifully built computer (CWWK aka Topton), might be a tool of the evil Chinese state, and might explode or assassinate the cat at any moment. OK, I'm being ridiculous… I don't even own a cat.
It's an impressive bit of kit though. The fan is optional and not really necessary. I've taken the "better safe than sorry" approach and attached a Noctua PWM fan. It only kicks in when it has to, and is inaudible when it does. It has an Intel N100 processor and I've fitted 16GB of RAM and a 2TB NVMe stick.
I've already migrated this #GoToSocial server to it from my previous Celeron N3150 server (soon to be eBayed), and it's noticeably quicker.
