So this site is now hosted on an old ThinkPad E430 that I use as a home Linux server for a handful of sites and some self-hosted apps. They all use a Cloudflare tunnel to expose an otherwise network-isolated nginx server to the Internet. This is a fantastic free service that let’s anyone host public Internet endpoints from a device not directly exposed to the Internet.

I found this Blocksy theme, which allows me to do Twitter-style posts — no title with content fully displayed in the post list — alongside traditional posts with a title and “more” line. It took a few tweaks to get things working as I like them, but so far not a line of code has been written. I expect I’ll get my hands in there and customize this with a child theme at some point. But for now, I can focus on content, which was the whole point. I’ll keep the About page updated with technical details around the site implementation.
