I’m using MeshGopher (not mine - https://github.com/jmansell90/meshgopher) which has a very basic gopher server built in, the builtin client chats via DM and will chunk text to get around the 200 byte limit. I was thinking about using gophernicus to add a bit of dynamic content (weather, etc).

I’m pondering about self hosting a small gopher hole on my raspberry pi. It’s mostly for #meshtastic (I’m using it as a BBS), but I’d like to show it off to people without a mesh of their own. Would it be a bad idea to open port 70 on my firewall? I’m intentionally avoiding any cgi so the surface area of attack in smallish.
