MyBB Community Forums

I have developed a Gopher software for MyBB based forums.

What is Gopher you ask? Wiki
Gopher is a communications protocol for retrieving information such as documents from IP networks.
It is an exciting technology used by thousands of people world wide!

In my opinion, Gopher is what google wants AMP to be but is 20 years ahead of it’s time. It makes the perfect alternative, providing fast browsing without any advertising/javascripts to slow you down! Think of the SEO value.

Below is a recorded demo of Gopher in MyBB based system with CreateMyBB, but you can also check out in real-time using your own Gopher Client or the web proxy at https://gopher.floodgap.com/gopher/

If you are super excited about this like I am and want this for your forum let me know! I have put many of newest CreateMyBB forums into our gopher directory already! Other cool gopher related features are coming soon! Mainly a proof of concept to enjoy.

This is really exciting, I first thought of Golang once I heard of Gopher

That's really interesting - I'd not heard of this before. Do you have a preferred Gopher client?

If people interested will post source on github. It is a PHP based server that I made.
