Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Go on eBay, punch in the price you're looking to spend and search for an old server. Keep in mind some manufacturers use proprietary connectors.
Look for servers with lots of ECC ram, clean photos of the internals.
They probably won't have a drive that's pretty common.
To meet that 16 core requirement, you'll probably be looking at older dual socket systems.
Edit: a quick search I found this. https://www.ebay.com/itm/225978893065?
Not a perfect match but the price is pretty good.
