So simple, no images, no videos, no bullshit this just works… Now mainly out of habits and because I have some friends on it… Also some nostalgia about the time internet was more than http and so on

Using a self-hosted thelounge too and, as alternative if my home connection drop or so, I have irssi in termux.
Of course, it’s the best proto for chat, I use it actively everyday since 1997.
I use SimpleHttp server but it’s not open source and available only on play store. I use this to download epub from my e-reader after having downloaded them on my phone. Now I will look into foss solutions proposed in this Post, through termux or other apps, thanks.
Edit: indeed with termux + caddy + termux widget it’s just perfect
Didn’t knew this one, still a fan of osmand but why not give a try
Definitely for osmand+, I think this is one of the best opensource app on Android (and the fact being openstreetmap based is a definitive plus because you can correct the map for benefit of the community).
Didn’t knew this existed at all, will look at this definitely because I have problems with usb C plug on my phone that doesn’t hold very well the connector…
Indeed just issuing a warning at connection or so “keep in mind to drive safely and keep an eye on the road” would be more appropriate IMHO. There is the same kind of restrictions with Waze, you cannot access the keyboard when driving and are forced to use the speech recognition which is often difficult (especially in foreign countries where street names are in foreign language).
