Hello world!

Welcome to subcon.town! Subcon town is a small private "pubnix" server, hosted for friends and family. Subcon offers ssh access, webpage hosting and various other cloud services, such as nextcloud and git hosting.

October 2022: Finalizing stuff

It has been quite a while, but slowly the server has been getting ready to start functioning as an actual pubnix community. The website has received a little touch-up, the copyright notice has been updated, and a lot of work has been done under the hood.

The initial plan once everything is ready, is to allow a few people on the server for testing: this is to iron out some issues before letting any more people in. Depending on how much trouble we run into, this may take a little while. After that, I hope I can welcome more friends onto my server, in hopes of making this another way of getting together and staying in touch.

The available services on subcon town are still being tweaked; however we do now have proper http, gopher and gemini hosting for our users. Nextcloud and gitea will remain available as well, as will the new Akko's Friture akkoma instance. However, after some consideration, I have decided to also shutdown a few services: Bookstack, the wiki solution, will be removed as it is simply not in active use. The Snikket xmpp service might be discontinued if I cannot find a fix for the http issues it has; it might be replaced with a regular Prosody installation.

I hope to bring more news on a much sooner schedule. Please wait warmly!

FAQ

Q: It's been almost a year, are you ever gonna get this show running?
A: Yes. I really want this to work. But it's hard to keep working on it with work being work and life being life. However, I've decided to start dedicating some more time to myself so I can more reliably work on my projects.

Q: Is Subcon Town open for new users?
A: No. The intended purpose is an invite-only pubnix, for friends and family. After the testing phase, I will start sending out invites to people interested. You may ask for an invite as well at that point, but the plan is to only let comfy people in.

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 currently run a new instance called Akko's Friture, but it's a single user instance for now.

Q: Is that the Yoshi's Island font?
A: Yes. It was good game.
