It costs like $3/mo to host it. If that’s too resource intensive then I don’t know what your limits are. Compute isn’t free—that literally breaks the laws of thermodynamics, no matter what you’re told by hosting services, and ghost does server side rendering and has a dynamic admin dashboard and can even work headless… and it costs less than $3/mo for your own personal open source cms.

If you need something that costs less then you can just build your own I guess, but how many hours of your time is that worth when you could just be spending $3/mo. If you make minimum wage at $7/hr one hour of work gets you two months of running a website.

Closed source. Who’s to say it ain’t credential sniffing and spyware?

And remove the need for keys to exchanged and suddenly the impossible is possible. Access to the hardware can always beat any software, it just needs wits. It has to communicate over some sort of NIC or other chip that can be desoldered and replaced with a custom firmware. Or its pins might have a Linux socket connection. Who knows how many insecure holes are there once you have access to the boards. Once you get there it, and enough people care to do it, it can be as easy as an ifixit guide away with an open source board or something, or hopefully just a flash of firmware away.

If I had a Tesla and someone smart enough to hack into I wouldn’t doubt I could probably figure out how they build their dashboards and reverse engineer them, they’re most likely browser based or qt or something like it. It’d be too costly to do it in anything else and Id bet many spacex dashes are the same tech. But I ain’t rich enough to get one of those things so someone else has to. There’s only so many ways to draw pixels on a screen in the name of profit
