I don't think that's true. I've hit the front page a couple times and actually got very little traffic, and definitely nothing that my $5 vps with no caching couldn't handle.

were you running wordpress? i think the traffic that HN sends crushes wordpress specifically. who knows... maybe it's just our wordpress config. we're gonna port it over to a static site generator anyway.

  Probably should switch to static content, a Raspberry Pi could handle the traffic no sweat.

    Yes, raspberry pi with handle front page HN. Put free cloudflare in front and you're laughing.
