Classic Mac's Hotline server

Hello! I'm looking to get more eyes on the Classic Macs Hotline server. Point your Hotline client to "macos.retro-os.live" and get the 14,552 files in the repo (note these are the same as what you can get from our FirstClass/Website/FTP servers) that have been downloaded 1,462,655 times so far.

Note these files are also available via FTP at ftp://macos.retro-os.live - No need to use a web client.

We also have one for "cat" releases of OSX on Intel at "macosx.retro-os.live"

Our site for Hotline itself is at https://hotline.retro-os.live and you can get Hotline clients for most systems there.

If you have any questions just let me know! For fastest response you can use our Discord server at https://discord.gg/VGefxXp2d

Do any of the Linux Hotline clients in your downloads section actually work on modern Linux with Wayland?

What happened to all those Magic Cap 1.0 apps that you had on your website years back? I can’t find them anywhere

Pharouge runs on Ubuntu 24.04 and zorin 18. Works great.

Interesting. Maybe a x11 issue?

Just found out about this modern client that even displays the server banner: https://github.com/fuzzywalrus/hotline - it's very nice...
