I'm in a very similar situation but more jaded. AI has made updating my aging system impossible which isn't a total loss because I haven't seen a new game I'm excited for since valheim.

I was dreadfully in love with nightingale, enough to buy it in early access. It's the very edge of what my system can handle. It's now no longer being developed, so I guess it will never be more than that.

I really hope this AI bubble pops soon and we get affordable parts back. I was lucky that I built my PC before all of this started but man, just buying a 1TB HDD for my Jellyfin server is draining the bank.

Oh man, I'm only just getting into home servers and I pinch my bytes harder than my pennies these days. I can not afford anything I actually need to improve my rig.
