Just watching some retro CoCo content on Youtube and there was mention of dialing in to a BBS at 300baud in 2023. This got me thinking... In the UK atleast mobile contracts only really charge their users for Data and premium rate calls/xMS. Does anyone know if someone has fudged together a BBS style system hosted on a Linux mobile? In theory you'd be able to host it on a minimal data contract for a few pounds a month. You'd be limited to 1 or 2 simultaneous connections but you could maybe use...

@skyjake I swear I posted in a thread earlier today discussing ways to remobe the need to navigate a link and get a respose before prompting a user for expected input. Can't find it or my post in my post history. Has that thread been deleted or am I just going mental?

Well, I took part in the #oldcomputerchallenge this year. Though I found I didn't really have enough free time to feel like I sufficiently.participated. I did discover a few things though... 1) bsd.sp will not relink the kernel successfully, 2) I think I want to go full tty for a bit, 3) IRC is great and I don't know why I never got in to it before, 4) ircii could do with a couple.of QoL improvements.
