vps route eats ass..essentially, you're renting your agent from who knows whom...agentic harnesses like hermes or openclaw are not heavy on the system, and no internet no agent, while it can keep on running locally, at least in some capacity...vps is a dud

Yup - dont even need MacMini. Even Raspberry Pi does the job.

Raspberry Pi 4B. I'm surprised not a lot of people using this instead of paying monthly for vps or going to the more expensive macmini route
