> does require a fair amount of maintenance

Cargo culting the processes required for extreme use cases outside of that context is only good for learning to get paid money to do it in those contexts in the future. In and of itself it is very silly. For a human person a process running on an OS on running on a computer is far, far less work, maintenance, and complexity with better performance and longer lifetime.

We all never find nirvana if we don't try. Maybe someone does really get it slick and right.

Eventually this system probably will become quasi stable, sustaining. And for some folks, replicable & practicable. The author will probably soldier through a good amount of the pain then it'll tick along. Doom isn't certain. (But it is probable!)

Such a process can be deployed/backed up/restored in minutes by anyone with basic sysadmin skills and can scale to serve nontrivial user bases while costing much less than SaaS.

Classic sysadmin is seriously underrated.
