Once, someone asked what was the weirdest platform you run GtS on. Well...

 This message was sent from  #GoToSocial running on an  #OpenBSD #arm64 board (#ODROID HC4).

I think this #GoToSocial instance ran on #OpenBSD #arm64 using #ODROID HC4 is doing pretty well while eating (only) 5W.

@joel Do you run of SD-card or something more reliable ?

@santi it initializes the boot (using u-boot) from the SDcard but the whole system lives on a SATA drive.

Running OpenBSD 7.8 on ODROID HC4

Some times ago, I acquired an ODROID HC4 arm64 board and installed OpenBSD 7.2 on it. I used it for a moment but there were issues when running with two disks so I stopped using it. For $reasons, I took it out of its box and gave it another try using OpenBSD 7.8.

@joel I have an OrangePi 5 that draws about 6W. Really pleased with it.

@radhitya pretty good so far. Not seen a difference yet from previous amd64 VPS installation. But that’s only 1 day history :)
