I jumped off a cliff for a cheap Black Friday HP-based Chromebook (i3 with 16GB of RAM)
For my day-to-day Linux needs it has been great. I get all my apps/streaming through the play store, and all major SW for Linux works for my coding (VS Code, GIMP, Android Studio).
The current downside: I can run vms on the box (but I likely could run Docker...maybe?), But there's SSH for that.
Mainly it's a drag that the mouse-lock feature hasn't been implemented. So I can't play Minecraft. XD
It's your software needs that are really important.
What distro?
Do you need virtualization?
Are you looking to just have access to bash and unix-like tools?
Windows and Chromebooks fill most of my software needs for Linux... I push whatever else to a cloud, or switch to a more dedicated tower/rig for horsepower.
However, that code won't deal with other things like changing the port, having a built-in index, or having the server run for a discrete amount of files to serve.
I shared the link, since it was hosting webm based videos like a champ. I figured Fro wouldn't mind :)
The old solution we had been trying was weblite, and that needs all the user-content data to be manually added to weblite. Now I get to be lazy, cross platform, and have stand alone binaries ;)
