Congratulations on the release and on growing your community. I love the idea of being more conscious about where I spend my attention, and this is a neat approach to that.
If I had time to contribute to this (I don't, at the moment) I think it would be neat to contribute a "serve" command, where offpunk would listen for connections from other browsers on a loopback interface, and let me browse what it had sync'd from any user agent.
the "netcache" part of offpunk is designed to do just that. Kind of Curl of Wget but accessing the cache first or being restricted to the cache if needed.
There’s no daemon but this could be built easily outside of Offpunk: a simple script, waiting for connections and replying to request for $URL with the output of
Thanks for this. I've only just started using offpunk despite being a heavy Gemini/Gopher user and kind of following it since you first announced it. Maybe it's just hitting a wall with my computer usage generally.
offpunk greatly helped me with that: once my daily tour is finished, I’ve nothing to do but read what I have in my "toread" list, then, at some point, I close the lid of the laptop ;-)

In terms of collecting pages automatically, maybe https://www.gedanken.org.uk/software/wwwoffle/ could do? (although it'll need some hackery to deal with https)

Or even just to consciously select when you live online. Which is the appeal for me :)
