i'm really excited to show https://compost.party to the world! it's a web server running on an old, broken phone, getting energy from the sun using one of those portable solar chargers that you may also have lying around.

it's a real oddity and a real beauty

This is very nice, very inspiring! I would love to recreate that, any advice for a beginner ? Maybe a tutorial or a roadmap with some links ?

@Holi i hope i'll write down a detailed description very soon! it took a bit of trial and error and still takes regular care to run

@computersandblues Thanks a lot! I look forward to it! In the meantime, I'll look for my old phones and see if they're compatible.

@computersandblues Sooo I found back a GALAXY S3 NEO. The battery seems dead though. Hopefully it will be possible to make something with it!

@Holi nice! good luck. it seems like you can at least try and install postmarketos on it and play around: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_III_Neo_(samsung-s3ve3g)
