News

Januari 2022: Design overhaul

The subcon frontpage has received a design overhaul with a better finish. Also added now are news articles and an overview of our user pages (see below, or click "Users" in the menu).

Starting 2022, user pages are now operational. That means you can create your own webpages in your home directory, under public_html. Additionally, work has started on markdown file handling using template files, which means you can soon more easily write webpages using plain markdown files!

Meanwhile, game servers will soon be discontinued as they are no longer actively used. This also means openjdk will be removed to increase server security.

FAQ

Q: Is Subcon Town open for new users?
A: No. Currently it's a private "pubnix", meant for friends and family. So technically it should be called a "privnix" since it's not actually public like other pubnixes.

Q: Can I get an account on one of your services?
A: Only as an existing member. We are currently not open for new users to join. If you're already a member, ask @fristi for an account.

Q: Didn't you also run kartoffel.cafe?
A: Yes, but a recent change of plans made running an activitypub instance not very feasible, so I made the difficult choice of closing the instance, for good. I may run a new instance in the future though once I get better bandwidth.

Q: How do I do things on the server?
A: Broad question. I'm currently writing up a wiki with some tutorials and tips to get started. Please check back later for the link.

Q: Is that the Duck Hunt font?
A: Yes. It was good game.
