    Sure it "just works," but at what cost?

    The phone cost me $150, but get this-- I am now running my BBS on the Pinephone :D I managed to get that working over the weekend.

    In 2021, I never thought I'd be running a BBS with Dovenet/FidoNet on a phone.


    so can outside connections get into it?

    They certainly can get to mine, and at least one other that I know of.
