gollark: Speaking of Minecraft, does anyone know of decent software providing a nice web interface for managing a modded server? I have a nontechnical friend who wants to run a server on my, er, server.
gollark: Yes. Yes it does.
gollark: I use Android, so I can use *Termux* on my phone, which is a nice local terminal thing which can also use SSH. Very convenient. Occasionally.
gollark: There might be software which just encrypts files and filenames/some metadata but keeps other stuff intact, or splits it up into several pieces, but leaking metadata would partly defeat the point.
gollark: The problem is more that *most* ways of encrypting stuff would just leave a giant binary archive or something which needs copying over in full on any update.
