I just read your recent blog article about tomo bbs. I would like to pull the code and poke around. It is an interesting project. Do you have a link to a public code repository?

I have done some theming for the Rocksolid Light portal, so anything connected to that is interesting to me.

Here is my demo mini theme: https://news.octade.net (username: 'guest', password 'guest123', chars in reversed order).

@octade @vga256 sorry to jump in here without context, but i had no idea rocksolid was a thing. i'm working on a small nntp experiment and this is super useful. thank you both.


Rocksolid Light is maturing well and I prefer Usenet over the Fediverse. The code maintainer just recently added some BBS games to the portal.

There is a Fediverse/Lemmy group to which you can inform 272 subscribers of related stuff:

usenet_lemmy.ml (replace the underscore with 'at' sign.).

Just put a mention address for the group and your subject as the first line then all the subscribers will see it. Your first line will show up as the subject in the group, so be sure to put the mention addresses below your toot message, not above it. Here is the link to the Lemmy Usenet group where you can get the mention address:

https://lemmy.ml/c/usenet

I didn't put the address in here because I don't want this post going to the group.
