Nearing? 99.9% of the Internet content I care about is pure text.

In quantities could be served and stored on SBC or a phone from 10 years ago.

Think of text messaging, IM rooms, forums like HN or mailing lists, activitypub.

Do the math around how much text a person can consume in a day and how much data can a SBC handle in a day.

A $0.80 microcontroller would get you pretty far.
