Late.sh – a command-line Clubhouse for computer people
Points and comments are a snapshot, not live.
Late.sh is an SSH-based multiplayer terminal with chat, games, and an artboard.
late.sh is a command-line social platform accessed via SSH. Users can play games (2048, sudoku, nonograms, solitaire), collaborate on a shared ASCII artboard, listen to radio stations, and chat. An optional CLI client adds audio playback, microphone support, and clipboard image pasting. Identity is tied to SSH keys; no passwords or accounts are required. The server logs key fingerprints but not IP addresses. The artboard records each cell's placer and saves daily and monthly snapshots. A work room lets users post profiles with skills and status.
What commenters are saying
Commenters praised the project as a modern BBS and nostalgic for old internet vibes, with many calling it amazing. Some complained about low contrast on the landing page, calling it illegible and inaccessible. A few debated whether the page copy was written by an LLM. Others raised security concerns about leaking public SSH keys. The creator noted updates for better contrast, thanked for feedback, and acknowledged suggestions to add a GitHub link. A few commenters pointed out similarities to IRC or tilde.town while noting the extra features like music, games, and collaborative art.
