Does anyone here participate in one of those "people's mesh nets", like Freifunk, NYC Mesh, AWMN... Or maybe there are gemblogs about that?
I want to read about experience of setting that up, and more important, engaging people. It seems that Internet in Russia, where I leave, is gonna be much less free very soon :/

I know that feel bro. I am from Russia too. Censorship is rampant. It would be nice if I could make a mesh network in my university

@462 I thought about it, but it would be nearly useless

free or diy hosting tutorials? I’ll start:
gemini://sdf.org/smokey/gemsdf.gmi
I also saw a tutorial for self hosting on a rpi but now I can’t find it in my bookmarks

Free dual www/gemini hosting is an option through Sourcehut (sr.ht). I made a guide for doing this with Hugo, see first post on mntn.xyz or just follow the source code link and build off that. (If you want 100% free, you'll have to build and deploy to sr.ht manually instead of using the automated build feature... they had to start charging for build server use due to abuse.)

tilde.team has gemini hosting https://tilde.team/wiki/gemini there is a shared unix environment and is very easy to use

https://lookup.icann.org/ says this site is using Cloudflare nameservers.
Are you using their DDoS protection too?
Why (to each applicable)?
—
sk!_gaAry-2 · 7mo · No.426
the answer is that i am very lazy and all the domains i have use cloudflare and it's just there for dns. i was not going to put iich.space on it until i needed to change the server and dns target and namecheap's ttl meant i had to wait eight years before it propagated. i am not using their ddos protection and i think general tls passthrough requires $$

sk!_gaAry-2 · 7mo · No.427
i honestly haven't considered using anything else as a nameserver. is there anything recommended?

have you tried crystal yet? https://crystal-lang.org/

i really dislike how prevalent rails is in web development. solargraph doesn't exactly work as i would expect and rails developers tend to make really opaque and sprawling code. rails introduces strong conventions and is useful for people who aren't familiar with designing and maintaining applications but it brings so much pain with how much of a magical black box it is. crystal's similarity to ruby syntax might make it a more palatable change for rails people and i hope it catches on with frameworks like https://amberframework.org/

has anyone used the titan protocol (gemini://transjovian.org/titan) yet for anything cool?
it's intended for editing existing pages/resources though it could be a great way to support general file or image uploads. the lagrange client already supports it but it does add complexity to other clients if a capsule relies on titan for participation. that could end up being a big barrier to entry on top of the difficulty of breaking into using gemini already

Gemini and Titan should really have been called Castor and Pollux, and collectively known as Gemini.
Missed opportunity to be honest.

Anyone aware of ongoing OS replacement projects for old low power handhelds? Like the Palm etc? Most of the stock OSes have unremovable apps that no longer work. It would be cool to see a simple modern OS for this old but still great tech.

Ubuntu. I've tried a lot of other distros but I always end up coming back to it. I might try Zorin next time I do an install, but that's also Ubuntu based.

Using FreeBSD for about 2 years now. It works, doesn't get in the way and have lots of packages (I use pkg). Bhyve seems interesting, and ZFS with compression is nice.
For Android develepment (with Android Studio, so there is no FreeBSD version) I use Void Linux.

are you learning or working on anything interesting?

@136 people who grok haskell to me are always intimidatingly smart. i took a brief intro course to it and could do a few basic algorithm exercises but i never became confident enough in it to try personal projects. and what a fantastic name
@138 rpi projects are always fun, i have a couple filling a few roles around the house. are you a whole handheld rpi kit with touchscreen/etc? and do you have your own printer?
