> exe.dev is a subscription service that gives you virtual machines, with persistent disks


Thanks, I couldn't figure out what the hell was wrong. The front page is just... not helpful. Given the amount of pushbash how everyone feels about this, it should be removed from HN frontpage!


Thanks. I feel like I expect home pages to contain at least a modicum of information. And three seconds spent thinking about accessibility would have told them that light gray links on a white background are a terrible idea...


Apologies for the vagueness of the home page, we were not expecting to be here today. There is a little more info in our first blog post https://blog.exe.dev/meet-exe.dev and docs, but far needs to be written.

(We have also built some interesting tech behind this that we are excited to write up, I have a doc two pages long of blog posts we want to write.)


The blog doesn't work on Firefox on Android for me

I just tried this out in Firefox on macOS and there are no issues, so this might have something to do with our LetsEncrypt wildcard cert and the CA roots installed on Android. Could you tell me what version of Android you are using?

Works fine to me too. Looks like you're the only person that reports that. Are you sure this is not something on your end?

What TLS error do you get? Untrusted CA?


Works fine on Firefox/Android here

I am not sure. I even tried Google Chrome

This site can’t provide a secure connection blog.exe.dev sent an invalid response. ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR
