Reddit is dead to me, and given their stance on their apis, should be dead to pretty much all hobbiests deeply interested in self hosting.

I'd recommend against it. Apple's software ecosystem isn't as friendly for self hosting anything, storage is difficult to add, ram impossible, and you'll be beholden to macOS running things inside containers until the good folks at Asahi or some other coummity startup add partial linux support.

And yes, I've tried this route. I ran an m1 mac mini as a home server for a while (running jellyfin and some other containers). It pretty consistently ran into software bugs (less maintained than x64 software) and every time I wanted to do an update instead of sudo whateveryourdistroships update, and a reboot, it was an entire process involving an apple account, logging into the bare metal device, and then finally running their 15-60 minute long update. Perfectly fine and acceptable for home computing, but not exactly a good experience when you're hosting a service.

Isn't it all unicode at the end of the day, so it supports anything unicode supports? Or am I off base?

I later did ask it to just be helpful, specifically requesting it give me some possible words that fit for the 5 letter possibility for #1. It repeated "floor it" lol.

Not great, honestly.

Also never ask it to solve a picture of a crossword.

How I imagine you responding to your singular downvoter:

I'm human, and I'm speaking on the issues of self discovery, a progress path we can all share as people learning who they are, so maybe you shouldn't assume I'm stepping where I have no ground.

As for being told something made me gay, I have been. I've been told it was sexual assault (that did not occur) when I was young. I've been told it was the media and my friends. I've had those experiences, and yes, I know that we're born that way now but I did not always have the space to make that discovery. I lived a life where I thought there had to be a reason because I thought it was a negative quality in myself. I hated it because I grew up around others who hated it. Insults behind closed doors, threats of violence and hate, and I agree with you that if they believed it was the reason they discovered their identity, they have more to learn. That does not mean they have learned it.

That's such reddit logic. You assume everyone has a perfect understanding of themselves, but people have a lot of different things internally that drive them and they're not always aware of it. When I was young I was interested in other men, and frankly, quite disgusted by it. It's the habitat I was raised in and if you'd asked me back then, I'd have told you it was because I was a sinner. The real reason as I came to discover was indeed that I'm just gay. It took a lot of steps and discovery to get there. I'm not saying this is real, I'm just pointing out that just because your logic is correct does not mean that this person if they are real has made enough discoveries about themselves to be strictly logical.
