That’s pretty cool !
If I had to do this myself, I would probably choose NixOS, so that I could write up a config on one of the PCs, and the deploy the exact same thing on every single one and be certain the build is perfectly reproduced.
Though I’m sure there are similar tools for other distros, but that’s what I know.
Great news ! Everything should be a non-profit, honestly.
I kinda wish I liked Mastodon, but I think the very format of Twitter-like social media was a bad idea from the start. Mastodon just feels like the least bad version of it.
I don’t think humans do well with access to a stream unfiltered, nearly-contextless random thoughts from other people.
