Recently, I’ve stumbled on more self-hosting projects that help out different communities/groups/non-profits. Examples:
- RIPE Atlas Probe
- Tor Snowflake (or relay)
- Archive Team Warrior
With a hardware investment:
- ADS-B Feeder (need SDR)
- Weather Underground (need weather station)
What else is out there along these lines?
I’m less interested in things like CryptoCurrency nodes or mining (including things like Helium), or very resource-heavy things like Folding@home.
Things like Freenet or ipfs where your node doesn’t provide just networking but also storage.
Could be too obvious to mention here but a fediverse instance of some sort, lots of different software you can run besides the usual suspects like Mastodon or Lemmy/Kbin ranging from the more niche microblog platforms like Misskey forks (writing this on a Sharkey instance) to things like Bookwyrm for tracking your reading habits and connecting with other book lovers.
