About this website's backend

This website is (currently) hosted on a Raspberry Pi 5 with a 2TB SSD. I run all of my services on this computer.

A short list of the services I am currently self-hosting on this device:

The RPI is directly connected to my router over CAT-6. The Pi is running RpiOS, and I have forwarded port 22 on my router to it so that I can perform system administration tasks from anywhere. When I first did this I noticed that I was getting bots from all around the world (China, Brazil, Russia) trying to guess my root password at all times at a rate as fast as allowed by my sshd configuration. Soon after I switched to ssh-key based authentication, and have never looked back since.
