Wow! Surprised to see this on the front page.

I built this about 8 years ago on a whim, and it blew up. Only recently did I learn there was a memory leak, after getting a big traffic spike that caused an OOM.

Over the years it’s burned through several TB of bandwidth per month.

I built ascii.live to support different animations for fun, although I don’t have as much time to review PRs as I’d like.

I hope you're hosting it on Hetzner (or somewhere else with a generous traffic plan). They give you 20TB traffic per month.

Or if you're running a bunch of smaller projects, get a dedicated server with Hetzner and enjoy unmetered connection.

Ooh, I had a coworker who had one with zoidberg dancing once, though it seems to be dead now so maybe he didn't renew the domain. He probably used ascii.live!
