@enlamp shares how they took their agents off public cloud: for roughly the cost of one month on Scaleway, they bought a 16GB ThinkCentre mini PC and installed multica, tailscale, opencode, and hermes — "problem solved."
The attached photo shows the machine running Kubernetes-related services, suggesting the local agent setup is already in production use. A cost-driven self-hosting alternative for agent developers tired of cloud bills.
