I totally agree with you. Running a cheapo mac mini with full permissions with fully tracked code and no other files of importance is so liberating. Pair that with tailscale, and being able to ssh/screen control at any time, as well as access my dev deployments remotely. :chefs kiss:

why a mac mini rather than a cloud vps

I use a new Ryzen based mini PC instead of Mac mini, but the reasoning is the same. For the amount of compute/memory it pays for itself in less than a year, and the lower latency for ssh/dev servers is nice too.

One less company to give your code to.
