Probably not worth fixing given limited use. It as a beautiful and neat feature, though. I used it for a few days. I could also imagine a native client done that way being more useful, efficient, and secure.
I tried it for a bit but the fact you got disconnected after like 5 minutes and I had to input my 24 char randomly generated password every time put a damper on my enthusiasm.
I’ve always had a soft spot for DEC terminals with amber displays - my first forays onto the Internet were done using one (albeit connected to a VAX running VMS).
Too bad, lobste.rs-BBS isn’t running any longer – that was gorgeous on my VT220
(hint, hint sysop team :P)

Casually shilling for a possibly relevant project

A great thing. If you have the time/will/energy you could de-yellow the chassis to make it complete ;).
Here’s a wayback to instructions for mixing up a batch of Retr0brite if you are interested.
