Hello, This is my first website and I want some feedback from you guys. It’s very basic and I haven’t added much. just wanted to host something so I threw invidious and whoogle instance there. My ISP doesn’t provide a static IP so I had to host it on tor :( what else do you think I should host there? server spec: 15 year old computer with i3 first gen cpu.
Plain old static HTML is fine, and you can host it on a potato! Here are some design tips to keep it easy to read. None of them are objectively correct, and you are already doing some of them. They are just some suggestions as you move forward:
I don’t want to question your aesthetic choices but I think it hurts readability.

Haha, you got me there. So I guess you could more correctly say ‘a font with serif for titles only’.
Surprisingly, I can’t find that made as an actual usable font. I would have thought someone in font design would jump at the chance just for the fun of it.
They’re hosting on tor, they probably don’t want internet hosted fonts from Google. There are tons of CC licenses fonts available that are very useable.
I have seen multiple references to running software “on a potato” in the last hour. What in the world does it mean to run something on a potato? (Like… pickle electricity? That’s all I’ve got.) Please advise…
A potato is a very slow computer. Usually old and / or low quality. I’ve got no idea where it comes from though.
I would imagine it comes from the fact that you can generate electricity with potatoes
Ah, I convinced myself that I was wrong to think that. I know you can get electricity from lemons, and thought I’d mixed them up 🙈

It originally referred to a camera, so a meme to draw attention to poor quality pictures–“camera is potato” and then “potato quality”
Ah, that makes sense, thanks :)
Just happy when my long internet history can actually contribute something.
