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

@computersandblues I loved the project. Is there a self-hosted, single-user, ActivityPub server running on Android?

Is there any project documentation?

@oigreslima @computersandblues it runs Alpine Linux, not Android. GoToSocial might compile in it.

@david @oigreslima @computersandblues I've heard of people running #Honk and #snac2 instances on phones?

@dheadshot @david @oigreslima @computersandblues I'm fairly late to the conversation, but you should hit up @knapjack if you want stories about #honk on retired smartphones. #teamtinyhonkers

@david @dirk @dheadshot @oigreslima @computersandblues #honk runs fine on @termux ! I ran it on the Always Free tier in Google Cloud for a while and then realized my old phone had more RAM and made the pivot.

Currently running on a Raspberry Pi, but only because I was trying to pivot to @postmarketOS and got lazy. 😁
