Hello! Monthly reminder for February that I *still* have some free Ubuntu Synchronet servers I can donate again. \U0001f601 What's included? Linux 64-bit server with 2gb of RAM and 50gb of SSD. More than enough for a BBS. Servers are in one of a selection of datacenters (your choice). We also preload over 100 door games and BBSLink & DoorParty games if desired.

Interested in working with you and hope to talk with you further! Be sure to check out our Synchronet doors at https://synchronetbbs.org/index.php/downloads/category/3-doors as well...

If you are interested, go to https://SynchronetBBS.org/HostSplash and check out with the "offline" payment method so you don't have to pay. Be sure and put "free server" in the comments field so I know what you are wanting...

Here's to Synchronet fans! I'm going to try and post this only once per month, for as long as I have them \U0001f61d This is likely to be the last free servers I have in the foreseeable future, so if you think you might want one please reply soon!

Can't speak to the encoding, but appears to be "grinning face with
smiling eyes". Also curious as to what application is/was used.

Interesting. What program did you cut *from*? I'm pretty sure SyncTERM didn't do that \U encoding of the Emoji.

Could be the clipboard manager, since that is how I copy them. You select the emoji and it copies them to clipboard and then the clipboard gets pasted. As far as I know of course...
