>tfw BBS will make a massive comeback as people become more and more aware of the botnet that is modern web
No browsers, no tracking, no scripts. Lightweight enough to run a server for hundreds of thousands of concurrent users on a $5 dollar SBC. Simple command line interface. Cutting edge ASCII graphics.
It's the way the internet was meant to be.

tfw FF vs chrome threads will be replaced with hypermodem vs. putty in your lifetime.

No normal person would want to gimp themselves to live out your nostalgic fantasies of a time before you were born.
Ryder Lopez
good god I hope so. HTTP needs a replacement

>yfw you can just develop your own BBS-like interface for imageboards and relive some of the glory
Cameron Bailey
How so, given that you need a dedicated program to connect to a serial device via ttyS too? You really think that all that putty is used for is connecting to a Linux system from Windows? How is there no putty for Linux too?

I'm conflicted.

>How is there no putty for Linux too?
Because PuTTY is a SSH client. It adds basic functionality to Windows that is already included in Linux' terminal environment. There's no need for a GUI like PuTTY on Linux. Same reason there's no "WAMP" or "MAMP" like software for Linux.
Justin Hall
That's why I'm conflicted. Although I'm pretty sure there are some anons in those discussions. It's been a while.
Alexander Sanchez
Any good english speaking live bbs'?
Julian Thomas
>Because PuTTY is a SSH client
No lol. It's a terminal emulator with extended capabilities, an ssh client is just part of its functionality. It can connect to ssh, telnet, rlogin, or even just serial.

I've heard Ami express can run over telnet, so we should set something up then
Could have some cool forums and chatties over telnet

What was generally used BBS software back in the day, and what were the operating systems they usually ran on? Also, what hardware was needed?
Zachary Jenkins
Ripterm 2000 was my bbs client back in the day, but I never experienced ripterm graphics.
