Good intentions, but I would be wary of anything not official like foldingathome or boinc (both great projects I recommend)
The reason is other people are horrible, and while your intentions are good, it's significant risk. Lemmy had a csam attack a while ago and I immediately moved my instance to the cloud because I learned that if I even accidentally hosted anything it means immediate seizure, self hosting it means they plow through my door and yank the servers.
Tor nodes, peertube, you open yourself up to that risk
"my instance to the cloud because I learned that if I even accidentally hosted anything it means immediate seizure,"
That sounds a bit extreme. You are not hosting csam on purpose. And most likely try to moderate as good as possible.
I actually believe more people should host their own server. And get rid of the cloud. Not moving more to the cloud.
It doesn’t matter if you’re intentionally hosting it.
