Sure, 😄, but I wouldn't run a CT log without ECC memory and next-gen filesystems like ZFS or BTRFS. For any other stuff like self hosted websites, forgejo instances, or GoToSocial instances, or BlueSky PDS, a Raspberry Pi or any other cheap system without ECC is probably fine.

I'm certainly not an expert in this domain like Filippo but if we can't rely on the records in a CT log, the CT monitors and user agents like Chrome who require correct CT logs lose their purpose. We can retire CT logs when we detect such errors but it requires proactive response from CT owners.

It's mentioned in the link that's attached to the ECC memory requirement — a CT suffered a random bit flip which caused all CAs to stop using it.
So yeah, I don't think running a CT log on a Raspberry Pi 5 makes sense. Most SBCs and mini PCs won't qualify because they don't have ECC memory.

Most syntax highlighting themes aren't accessible anyways. One of the most popular themes, Solarized, doesn't even pass WCAG 2.1 or APCA parameters. A poorly designed inaccessible theme (most of them are) end up hurting more than helping people, especially those without perfect vision.
