Nerd, truck driver, and kinda creeped that you’re reading this.
I’m here! Still running and mostly personally paying for hosting a Lemmy server (25% partially funded by 2 donating users, which I appreciate a ton!)
I just have it copied to an external HDD and also daily sync to cloud B2 storage (encrypted) while the main copy of the media lives on the SSD.
I never have to touch it unless there’s a failure… I should have a versioned backup on the HDD in that case. Unless there’s a fire or something and both are destroyed in which case I should be able to pull them from the cloud storage.
It’s all just automated cron jobs requires no effort on my part beyond setting it up.
I will say at least with those you can still sell them, trade them, whatever. Unlike digital games.
The difference is more that they’ll be useless in 25 years or whenever Nintendo pulls the plug on the download servers.
“Unclear who is right”
No it’s pretty clear, out with the colonizer government. How is this a question?
Nah, one’s a crazy maga idiot who wouldn’t fit here at all and the other is chill but spends time lurking Something Awful
