I am now officially a member of Bitreich!
Check out Bitreich’s gopherhole
I had been helping out tangentially by working on my Whisper Radio project, because they also had their own radio service. I also have been working on uncovering history regarding the Gopher Protocol and working on a lot of Gopher software.
I really admire the Bitreich group for being such a powerful and vocal, noticeable force for the Gopher Protocol in the modern era. I think I ran into their gopherhole randomly while surfing gopherspace.

Welcome someodd as new Bitreich member!
The council has decided to make someodd a new member of Bitreich. He has contributed to Bitreich by being a burning fighter for gopher and simplicity. He works on radio, gopher software and did ground breaking research into gopher history. There is much to come for the whole of the community.
Welcome!
Sincerely yours,
20h Chief Community Manager (CCM)
They gave me an SSH account which has some very interesting/fun services. For example, they have their own gopher service:
I’m very honored and happy to be an official member. I really admire the community vibes and their work.
