This. I like it.
Question:
Other than Usenet and BBS's, are there any protocols that are purely message-board centric?
Not that I'm aware of. There's all of the fediverse peer-to-peer stuff
(ActivityPub, Scuttlebutt, etc.) but I don't consider that to be in
the same category as this list and I'm not very familiar with them.
There are probably more than a dozen message boards built on top of
Gopher and Gemini, most of them modelled after chan-style image boards
or traditional web forums. gemini://station.marinrue.com is the only
one I know of that takes a shot at copying a twitter-like social feed.
Also, maybe it's just the circles that I hang out in, but BBS (over
telnet) seems to be rising in popularity again.
Best,
Michael
That they certainly are; I have accounts on several, some over SSH as well as Telnet.-------------- next part --------------A non-text attachment was scrubbed...Name: OpenPGP_0x25B204648F7C4DF6.ascType: application/pgp-keysSize: 7300 bytesDesc: OpenPGP public keyURL: <https://lists.orbitalfox.eu/archives/gemini/attachments/20211027/1db31b1c/attachment-0001.bin>-------------- next part --------------A non-text attachment was scrubbed...Name: OpenPGP_signatureType: application/pgp-signatureSize: 236 bytesDesc: OpenPGP digital signatureURL: <https://lists.orbitalfox.eu/archives/gemini/attachments/20211027/1db31b1c/attachment-0001.sig>
