Welp. Same thing happened in r/place


Such was r/place, and such is life. There is never a world where there will be no bots and it'll also be completely free for anyone to use online. I'll try to nerf it, though.


I understand where you are getting from, thanks for posting this. I'll keep this in mind for my next project (or if I push changes to this one.) I also wanted this to appeal to non-hackers, and a big part of that was me wanting to show how simple it was to log in.


I'll look into adding orange, thanks :)


Would like to clarify that all my code is open source at https://github.com/jeninh/ssh.place , even the deployment is triggered through GitHub actions. I'm also a teen and not too familiar with most of these terms, so I might be forgetting something.


What is public can be changed in private, as for being unfamiliar, well LLM made unfamiliar people able to do plenty of things.

Weird that you can't just say that you are not doing it.


I'm going to be so honest, I don't have much advice for you. I'm a teenager who's part of Hack Club (https://hackclub.com) who made this entirely for fun.

I was inspired by @zachlatta's SSHtron (https://github.com/zachlatta/sshtron) and wanted to make an SSH game. I loved how easy it was for him to promote it too, he made a HN post with title "ssh sshtron.zachlatta.com" because it gets people to try out the actual game rather than look at a README. If you have a business, find something useful that would help! Or in my case, find something fun you want to make/remake to be used in the terminal over SSH. Hack Club also used to have a hiring page over SSH, if I recall correctly.

My code uses wish, bubbletea and lipgloss from Charm. You can look at the code over at https://github.com/jeninh/ssh.place

Good luck!


Keep it up! You’re surely the coolest teenager I’ll come across this month.


Thanks :) There's tons of us over at https://hackclub.com


I'm wondering if there is a better way to do this. On one hand, we could just do it here but then I can't link people to this page or it'll harm the post. I could also just use a subreddit or make a forum on https://ssh.place


Building in support for that into the site itself kinda goes against the spirit.

It's understandable that you as the maker want to flame the hype as much as possible, but by making it too obvious you are kinda working against that goal.


The organicness of the original was really fun. Dunno if coordinating here really fits the HN vibe, but also go where the people are.


Place 2 wasn't too bad, it did get botted to all hell. I handled some the early recordings of the canvas to make live time lapses of it. I've done the same here just to have something to mess about with.


I'm just wondering what to do when this post dies down. Then I guess I could link to it... It's not like it's going to go back to the front page anyways


Oops. I'll fix that right now


It's a pretty flower :-) I hope it wasn't you who put that red line through it


lol no someone else did that while i was drawing it. thanks :)


Aww...


Shellbox is so sick!!! I'm going to look into implementing it into a project I'm working on.
