These are really cool services but to have a proper blast from the past you need to ssh in and join the chat on com or the discussions on bboard
ssh? Don’t you mean telnet?
SSH is 30 years old; it's fine
Telnet is just a better name though.
Is it? I don't get any intuitive connection from "telnet" to "shell access over the network", personally. Although, by the same token I would be open to reusing the rsh name; "remote shell" does seem obvious.
Telnet sounds cooler.
Because telnet was not originally shell access over the network. It was a serial connection.
Plus you can easily setup your own Gopher and/or Gemini site and you can have your WEB site there too.
FWIW, I migrated my WEB Site to Gemini with Gopher as a mirror. Maintaining those on SDF is far easier than maintaining via *panels.
