Surely in this day and age one would set up https, that too on a website related page

[chmod775]

Possibly SSL is not something that's quite that easy to set up on ReactOS yet?

Probably doesn't have a letsencrypt client.

Maybe there's no SSL/TLS library that works on it at all.

Hi, I’m the author of the page.

Right, Certbot doesn’t work because of an issue with Python, however, it’s easy to generate the certificates elsewhere and inject them into the virtual machine.

There is, but the OS needs to be patched to fix a socket issue (see https://github.com/reactos/reactos/pull/4086 which was never merged because of side effects). The patch does seem to work for my use case and I had actually the site running on HTTPS, but a few hours later it become unresponsive. I didn’t realize that this was probably just due to the HN DOS. I will give HTTPS another shot later today.

Maybe someone can put Forth into it. :)

It literally says on that static page of no security consequence that they tried to set it up, but it couldn’t negotiate a handshake without stalling.

There was an attempt:

Just for this there would be no point.
