       I'm finalizing the very small amount of holiday blog tinkering on the first day of 2024. I used the new journal post type to write up some extended notes over at [January 1st, 2024](/journal/2024-01-01/).

       +
       I don't know that I'm going to write more blog posts in 2024 (but hey! here's a first one!), but I do enjoy having note pages / landing pages where I can collect information and refer people to it. So one of the things I did was add a [Cloudron page](/notes/cloudron/).

       14

       I'd love to self host an IndieKit install on my own Cloudron -- it's a very small NodeJS server

       Oh right. [[Obsidian]] uses [moment.js formatting](https://momentjs.com/docs/#/parsing/string-format/), and [[Liquid]]'s [date filter](https://shopify.github.io/liquid/filters/date/)' uses [strftime](https://strftime.net/). And strftime isn't going to give me pretty _1st_ days as far as I can see.

       For the difference in price, I'd recommend at least the KVM 4 with 16GB RAM. Those are USD prices. You can use my referral code for one-click Cloudron installs on a [Hostinger VPS](https://hostinger.com?REFERRALCODE=1BORIS58)
