nah, it's pretty basic. I run an incredibly low level server - literally just runs linux and apache, all of it basic HTML, and weirdly as a result? it's been bulletproof. always hilarious watching people try and use php exploits, my server just goes "wat."

@melbaboutown @Taleya so true. I'm also not a fully fledged geek but have always created and hosted my own websites, I learned in the earlier HTML-only days. I really dislike the dependence on so much complex code to do basic things, it's aggravating to always have you be updating things... my oldest website keyword never gets updated though. It still has frames! 😂
