-
- gopherden[1] is forum software for the Gopher Protocol[2]. View the official
- gopherden server via the web[3] or via the Gopher Protocol (as intended)[4] (you
- may want to read my post about the Gopher Protocol[5]).
-
- I'm thinking about renaming it to "phorum."
-
- # Features (Users/Visitors)
-
- Features for the people who use a gopherden:
-
- * Transient content. Old threads are deleted. There's max thread count, when
- reached and a new post is made, the oldest one gets erased.
- * Anonymous, except IPs are associated with posts for banning and legal purposes
- * View threads as gopher maps or as text files (ASCII art, kind of)
- * Prevents some accidental reposting by refreshing
- * Prevents new threads being created where the message/content is the same as
- another in the DB
- * "Secret codes" which allow you to use codes like `<jgsBagOfMoney>` to
- potentially show an ASCII art picture
- * Rate-limiting (how fast you can make new threads or posts)
- * Handles/parses Gopher and HTTP(S) URIs into menu/map items
-
- # Known issues
-
- * No real bot prevention. A captcha-like system could be implemented.
-
- # Feedback
-
- * Contact me using a method mentioned on my about page[6]
- * Create an issue on the gopherden GitHub repo[7]
-
- # Who's using, in the news
-
- Some other instances, notable users...
-
- # Documentation and tutorials
-
- * The project's README.md[8]
-
- # See also
-
- * This site's gopher tag[9]
- * My post about the Gopher Protocol[10]
- * gopherden GitHub repo[11]
-
- # Post on the official server!
-
- This feels kind of redundant.
-
- Official *gopherden* server at gopher://gopher.someodd.zip:7070[12]. You may
- want to read my article on the Gopher Protocol[13] for help on browsing
- gopherspace.
-
- You can use my Gopher Protocol client, "waffle"[14] to visit the forum!
-
- You can use `gopher` (`sudo apt-get install gopher`) and then use `gopher -p "/"
- gopher.someodd.zip 7070`.
-
- You could also use Lagrange[15], which has a client for Linux, MacOS, Windows,
- Android, and iOS.
-
- Below is a photo of me using Lagrange to visit the forum on my phone:
