✅ What to do

If you want a real Gopher site on a Gopher server for free:

  1. Sign up for SDF — that’s your best bet for a no-cost Gopher-friendly host.

  2. Once on SDF:

    • Use their shell to upload your directory tree.
    • Use a Gopher server daemon they support (or just put files in a ~/public_gopher/ directory if available).
  3. Use software like Gophernicus or Motsognir (both open-source) to run your gopher server.


If you like, I can check currently active free Gopher hosts (2025) and find ones that let you host Gopher content — do you want me to do that?
