Testing out a fun experiment of running a variation of my existing website locally.
What's cool about it?
- Served off a Raspberry Pi Zero 1.3
- Running entirely in RAM (thanks Alpine!)
- Web server -> darkhttpd
- Has a tiny ~$4/year VPS in front of it handling the TLS termination
I'm sure things will explode if too many visitors slammed the poor little Pi, but I think regular traffic would be completely fine ;)
If interested: https://zero.btxx.org
PS. sorry if it falls over!

@bt@mastodon.bsd.cafe that's something very cool! Can you please elaborate on the necessity of VPS for it?
