I've got quite a few Raspberry Pi boards, including an original one that I bought at @oggcamp in 2012. I think it's fairly rare because it only has 256MB of RAM. Anyway, I decided to see if it can actually do something useful so installed Pi-hole on it.

Although it's quite slow when I have to ssh in and deal with config, the web interface is pretty responsive. I've been using it on my phone for a few hours but it's absolutely fine.

So maybe the Pi 1 is actually useful!

@joeress @oggcamp Ooh, I've got one! Uptime monitoring for self-hosted services. Much cheaper than renting a VPS.

~verbose -- what are you running for uptime monitoring? I have "Uptime Kuma" on a Pi 400, ticking along just fine (and that's the same Pi 400 that has a software-defined radio server running).

@w8emv @joeress @oggcamp honestly, just some cron jobs right now. I plan to replace it with something like uptimekuma, but it's a Pi 1, so I'm gonna have to go for something lightweight.
