Hello, World

This is the first post on my self-hosted blog. It runs as a static site on my Raspberry Pi k3s cluster, served by nginx behind Traefik, with TLS from Let’s Encrypt.

The whole thing is a few hundred kilobytes of static HTML built with Hugo — no database, no JavaScript, just files.

Why self-host a blog?

Because I already run the cluster, and a static site is the cheapest possible tenant on it. It also lets me own my identity at gorokhov.dev — including, soon, my fediverse handle @vlad@gorokhov.dev.

More to come.
