# Motivation for Ryumin's Dome For a long time, I was looking for a service which would permit anybody to save textual work in a git repo. All the big free services for git-hosting of code can do that, but they are for code, not for text. Then I got my own VPS and *bam* all was there. Then I became more active with Gopher, and got the idea of a server providing easy access to a gopherhole via git, for anybody to easily publish texts without requiring shell access. Then solderpunk started the circumlunar.space experiment, developed the idea of a loosely linked network of servers under the "circumlunar franchise". And so Ryumin's Dome is a server providing anybody git-accessible gopherholes. The name of this server was solderpunk's idea. *2018-11-15 // ryumin*
