Does anyone have recent information on how much traffic being on the HN frontpage gets you? Would be helpful to know.

15-20k but can be easy solved with CloudFlare full page cache rule

Likely possible to handle HN load just fine... if the page was static.

edit: page loaded. It's apparently Microdot, a micro web framework running on micropython.

My website runs on baling twine and duct tape (...and CloudFlare).
