It's kind of fun to compare the amount of resources used between, say, John Carmack's time at id and this - I would bet this requires several orders of magnitude more compute :)
- reaperducer 2y agoI recently looked into setting up a finger server on a spare Ubuntu box, but came up with nothing useful. Admittedly, I didn't look very hard, so if anyone has some pointers, please share.
- mxuribe 2y agoNot sure if what you implemented was the legacy style of finger or the newer webfinger...but the indieweb community certainly uses (or used to use?) webfinger for discovery. See: https://indieweb.org/WebFinger https://indieweb.org/WebFinger
- reaperducer 2y agoNo, I'm looking for the old school CLI finger. >finger user@example.com Though I find the new version intriguing.
- mxuribe 2y agoWhile I've only done it very few times...whenever i have set up old school things, the challenge is ALWAYS that i end up being alone - with no one to play with said stuff. So, the initial fun always wears off. But, I'm glad that you have undertaken playing around with old school finger, and wish you well and hope you have some good fun! :-)
