It runs on RPi while it is in Alpha, but part of the cost of the funding campaign is to extend support to more powerful single-board computers as well as full-size x86/64 machines.

In a nutshell, yes -- it's an easy way to install/configure server applications to self-host on your own hardware, without having to use the command line or obtuse webmins.

Just wanted to say that I am a huge fan of your magazine and your podcast. Always entertaining, fresh and engaging, and I hope your newest venture keeps that same edge. I wish you guys the best of luck.

There are steps taken to address security and stability concerns. See my other commends on this item. Also you may need to look beyond just the front page - can't put everything we want to do and plan to do on the front page at once. :)

I totally understand the impression. But the goal with arkOS is to help people securely self-host with as much stability as possible. Since self-hosting is a complex and occasionally troublesome thing, some people may need help in getting properly connected. So the only reason we consider hosting those services is to help with these ends. If someone needs the services in order to self-host, I think it is better that they use them, rather than not being able to self-host at all. Any services will be 100% optional and up to the end user.
