I would be really curious if this was the case prior to the advent of smartphones. Was the ratio the same on early USENET or BBS? It’s so much easier to lurk than participate from a smartphone keyboard.
If it works, is safe, and is maintainable, there’s no shame in it. My unraid box has some unorthodox drive mounting too.
