a young guy started to host WordPresses for his friends on a Raspberry. Then he teamed with a new friend to create IndieHosters. This project was about hosting free software for people.

A new team member came along. And eventually, they finally managed to secure a bigger client and some nice smaller one. The rent was mostly paid.
