About Late Sh
Late Sh is a terminal-based social space for computer users, reached by connecting with any SSH client. It combines real-time chat, a shared activity feed, audio streaming, terminal games, news, and profiles in one interface. The public hosted service at late.sh is the canonical deployment. This GitHub repository holds the main codebase, which is available for source reading, local development, audits, and contributions.
The code is source-available rather than OSI open source during the FSL protection period. The stack uses PostgreSQL, Icecast, and Liquidsoap, and the repository includes Docker Compose files. The source does not state any usage limits or geographic restrictions.
