Re: "phone-hosted gemini/gopher server? I found this..."
That would be a cool way to repurpose an old phone instead of just tossing it.

I think it should be possible, I've seen tutorials on how to host an HTTP server on a phone by installing Apache, maybe you could follow roughly the same steps and install Agate or something?

I do have termux installed, I can try to give that a go and see what happens.

OK, agate is on termux! unfortunately, I have no idea what to do. I made a simple index.gmi file, followed the instructions on the main page, but get an error to the effect of "WARN - could not start listener on 0.0.0.0:1965, but already listening on another unspecified address. Probably your system automatically listens in dual stack?" Also, can you really just pick a URL at random to use? Wouldn't you have to register it?

you can't pick a random URL, you have to register a domain name first and make sure the domain name points to the right IP adress
phone-hosted gemini/gopher server? I found this interesting software for android and saw that the ports that could be used aren't in the gopher range. Has anyone tried to set up a server on their phone for gopher or gemini?
