BBS "Proxy" ?
One of the nice parts about it is it's open source :) It looks like it is (mostly) a raw TCP connection - take a look at https://github.com/NuSkooler/enigma-bbs/blob/master/core/telnet_bridge.js, which uses the net module from node.js. As far as I can see, this looks like raw TCP rather than actually telnet. The one thing that the telnet_bridge.js code does do is look for a request for term type and can respond with that, though that looks like that would be easy to comment out or make into an option if that were a problem.

Ask HN: Could something like HN work on the fediverse?
Only if we can rock the old modems. I know there were some BBS....
....just went down the rabbit hole.
There is lots of bbs stuff out there. Here is one such example: https://github.com/NuSkooler/enigma-bbs

Asus Chromebox 5
My higher education institution has bought every generation of these for Digital Signage since 2014. We use an open-source (abandonware?) Ruby project called Concerto[1] to generate webpages, and the Chrome OS Kiosk Mode[2] feature to boot these things straight to chrome-less full-screen web browsers that load Concerto webpages. It's a nice setup, but I do worry about the future support of both of those pillars.

Chrome Sign Builder & folder full of JPGs
You could take a look at Concerto. A group of RPI students developed it to use as their campus signage system. I’ve deployed it twice before and it’s a pretty flexible system, you can add images, announcements, sync with an iCal. You can even add multiple users with different permissions (high school staff can only manage the high school sign).
