Sometimes I feel that makes sense, but then I smack myself and write a 30Kb application that requires no database administration, server balancing or an IT team, and that is actually more robust.

It just needs to be on one server that works.

I agree, everything I create for the small web is rendered into static text, no dbs, no cgi, just serving files.

But the “one server that works” problem is never a guarantee. Which is why some of those fancy redundant ideas can have their place. If it’s required. It’s usually not.

I was more spitballing about the larger issue of small self hosting, than your exact situation.

Ps. If no one else rocks up, I’d happily host. I used to run a pubnix years ago and have been toying with the idea of starting one up again.

I get it. I always wanted to run a bbs or a pubnix, but realized long ago that I'm better at writing code than keeping other people's code running...

Apologies... I am at the mercy of the people running the server... This is the third time I am scrambling to find hosting... I hopr team comes back up while I search for something better.
