Aw crap, I may have awakened something in me…like hosting another bloody service the kids will use once and then just quit. No amount of my over-engineering can solve user apathy…so this time I’m investing less effort :)
Interestingly…the local brain found these
github.com/nathanielxd/simple-lan-chat
f-droid.org/…/net.usikkert.kouchat.android/
I still kinda wanna do the XMPP thing now…but I have a nagging suspicion I will be talking to myself or the clanker with it.
