Today I heard from @handle that the next NLNet grant application deadline is in 4 days -- I also learned that this year they have a new category called "User Operated Internet". I got really excited about this because the last time I applied to the NLNet grant program, there wasn't really a good category for my project to fit under. But "User Operated Internet" is perfect!

I spent today throwing up a rough draft of a home page for my project. In the past I have called it Greenhouse, but I am thinking now I'm going to change the name to Server Garden, because the original thing that was going to be called Server Garden is now on hiatus.

Please take a look and let me know what you think! I know it has tons of issues, but I'm still interested to hear what folks think about it:

I have been trying to make a recognizable emoji representation of each one of my services for the readme file & the last log line after startup.

I was looking for one for Threshold (https://git.sequentialread.com/forest/threshold#threshold) but unfortunately there are no reliable emojis depicting walls, open doors, fences, open gates, or anything similar to that besides the ⛩️ shinto shrine emoji.

I read a little bit about ⛩️ on wikipedia and it seems like a conceptual fit for threshold in theory, but I don't really know much about shintoism and I'm not involved with it so I opted against using it.

So I settled on this instead, and I like it.
