Of course, had to replace the hard drive once or twice, replaced the whole motherboard once[0], and even though it's 64-bit, the CPU arch (Westmere) lacks some instructions that make some things non-functional (MongoDB, some Steam games don't start), and I had to limit the CPU frequency so it doesn't go into thermal shutdown. Nonetheless it's a joy to use still, and I boot it up with pleasure every time...
Thinking when will I pull the trigger on a Framework, though at least I don't feel the pressure too much just yet. :)

The "reasonable limit" is likely set based on experimentation, and thus on how much people post on average and the load it generates (so the real number is unlikely to be exactly "2000", IMHO).
If you follow a lot of people, how likely it is that their posting pattern is so different from the average? The more people you follow, the less likely that is.
So while you can end up in such situation in theory, it would need to be a very unusual (and rare) case.
Alain Bertaud, the urbanist, recently said, “the big contribution of cities is randomness.” And he continues: “You don't know what to expect. You don't know who you will meet. And, it's precisely because you meet people who are different from you, who have different ideas. Sometime even it could be obnoxious people. I think obnoxious people — I mean, what I consider obnoxious — are necessary in order to stimulate.”
In North America, there is a very strong cultural preference to isolate oneself (probably a residual effect of the frontier spirit). Hence a strong preference for suburban single family homes with backyards (“for the kids and the dog”) and which results in spread out developments where people rarely have to interact. That’s fine — but realize that’s a cultural preference.
I grew up in a house with no backyard and had an idyllic childhood. I knew my neighbors and biked to the playground. I was as happy as a clam. To this day, I don’t feel any need to own a house with a backyard. That is also a cultural preference.
notion.so/:account/Current-Name-of-Page-:pageid
where the name changes if the page is renamed, but the redirect works, as the page ID is unchanged. In fact, one can just use notion.so/:account/:pageid
and gets redirected to the right page, or even notion.so/:account/Anything-else-:pageid
works too...This is very handy in my use cases, when various Notion data is extracted into another tool, reassembled, and then needed to have a link to the original page. I don't need to worry about the page's name, or how that name gets converted into the URL, or any race conditions....
The page hierarchy is then just within the navigaton, not in the URL, so moved pages continue to work too (even if this looks like a flatter hierarchy than it really is).
I'm sure there are plenty of drawbacks, but I've found it an interesting, pragmatic solution.

In the November 2023 list, Aurora was also in second place, with an Rmax of 585.34 PetaFLOPS/second.
See https://www.top500.org/system/180183/ for the specs on Aurora, and https://www.top500.org/system/180047/ for the specs on Frontier.
See https://www.top500.org/project/top500_description/ and https://www.top500.org/project/linpack/ for a description of Rmax and the LINPACK benchmark, by which supercomputers are generally ranked. The Top 500 list only includes supercomputers that are able to run the LINPACK benchmark, and where the owner is willing to publish the results.
The jump in Aurora's Rmax scope is explained by Aurora's difficult birth. https://morethanmoore.substack.com/p/5-years-late-only-2 (published when the November 2023 list came out) has a good explanation of what's been going on.
I've checked and closing/reopening works (of course locally only, no incognito tabs, etc...)
