...with which you still need to fight with MongoDB.

I'm still running with a Turris Omnia as router, which served me very well for >7y, added a small legacy SSD, managed to setup everything and worked for a while, but TO is armhf architecture, which mongodb quit packaging for with version 3.x. LXC containers for armhf (Debian/Ubuntu) stopped being released too by official channels. But the latest shiny Unifi app requires MongoDB >= 4.x (Unifi app >=7.5).

"Ok, I'll just buy one of those small embedded boxes": purchase Odroid H3+ (x86_64), install stuff, add docker, start up mongodb5 container annnnddd... illegal instruction! Turns out with MongoDB 5 they decided that with pre-built packages everybody has AVX instructions anyway, and packages are built with the expectation AVX instructions are present... which is not always true for low-power devices or even servers (the Intel Jasper Lake CPU of the Odroid H3+ was released in Q1'21).

Want to run this in a VM? Your host CPU better support AVX, too. https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-59482

I guess someday I'll just have to build my own docker image of MongoDB...
