Cheers - I'd seen the pi forum post. I feel that the zero should be enough for a simple pod for 20 or so people who just wish to exchange a few small text messages daily. The joy of the Pi Zero is the ssd can just be popped out and put in a 2 or 3 and upgraded if it requires more oomph and the pi zero can host the hard drive! For around Â20 you can be up and running with only DDNS and punching holes in firewalls to consider.Hi Ton There is a thread on the RaspberryPI forums about this (well Diaspora on a pi generally) https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=873 Seems be some concern regarding resources, It may be better to run on a Pi3 with a usb hard disk to give it that little more power, but I am not sure how well that would hold up. (see below). In the first instance you don't get much traffic as you gain contacts, and start sharing more and more then I guess that will start to put more pressure on the set up.

I was wondering if anyone has tried running it from home as I was wondering if it could be possible to set up something like RaspberryPi zeros as personal Diaspora hosts so you could give one to someone and they could take it home and plug it in and you can securely communicate with them and other Diaspora users.
