Not buying anything: $0.

Both our options are equally far away from an open source music player.

Well said.

I have a Pi4 running a mastodon branch, the “dreaded capacity hog” synapse and much more. Never had any issues with capacity. I know people who set up Pi’s as CDN relief servers for PeerTube video transfers.

I suppose people have different experiences.

1. Not that I know of, but most likely. If you’re new to hosting, maybe look for automated tools that does the heavy lifting for you - Like how Lemmy can be installed by copying and pasting a single command.

2. Beyond power/internet, you can host for free. Subdomains can be free, I assume you have the hardware and pay for power and internet anyways.

There goes my hope of Google being named after gabagool.

Have you heard about MMS before?

Some say “yes, by a lot”. In my experience a 10 seconds fetch rate on apps costs only a few percentages of battery per charge if the fetch is reasonably sane. Checking 75 podcast feeds with thousands of episodes every 10 minutes isn’t sane.

I have tested and got better battery on Lineage/Clean ROMs as compared with stock as well. I put it down to bloat and spyware constantly running in the background with elevated priviledge. 🤷‍♂️

You are forgiven. Element constantly runs a worker to check for new messages on the FOSS version (depending on your configuration), unlike PUSH which just sits idle and listen for new messages.
