Hi. I'm sloum.
I used to host a lot of stuff here. Then the server fatally crashed. We have spun up a new one. I think I am going more minimalist this time around. As such, I would not expect too much to pop up here in this space.
I work on lots of things in my spare time. I used to mostly list software here... but software is a transient effect. It comes and goes and mostly isn't that important. I'll try to have other things as they come up. A lot of the links will likely end up being web links, as I don't host a lot of gemini content anymore. Though who knows where things will go and what will change. Maybe I'll start posting gemini stuff here.
I am the creator/publisher/curator/developer of two speculative fiction magazines:
This one primarily publishes slice of life fantasy-adjacent stories with a focus on relationships/family and nature. The stories we publish are generally no/low-tech. Issues are published on each solstice as epub, azw3, and kepub files for free/gratis.
This one publishes stories that are largely from an alien perspective (read: non-human[oid]). It publishes, currently, on each equinox. Stories are posted to the website and organized by issue. They are readable free/gratis.
For both magazines we pay authors for the stories (not as much as we would like, but we do what we can), but do not charge for the magazine and license the collection such that it can be freely distributed as a unit while respecting the authors' copyrights on the individual stories.
My gopher phlog @circumlunar.space
My gopher phlog @colorfield.space
Slope (a programming language I created)
Bombadillo (my long neglected, but still useful, internet client)
Regarding the above software items: I used to host a lot of code here on ratext.club, but we no longer offer git hosting and a lot of what I had up was lost to the crash and has not been relocated elsewhere. I do not use bombadillo much anymore and do not update it since I tend to use my vim client[a])
I am no longer offering any local services. But I do still maintain (if that word is really applicable) gemlog.blue, a website that allows you to easily host a gemlog over gemini without needing to know much about gemini, the web, or coding.
