What is Reddit's opinion of Scuttlebutt.nz?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

So basically you want something to spread a message uncontrolled over the mesh until it reaches some online node?

This could help and PirateBox alike device can provide a node to forward messages... until it reaches a online node

Protokolla on olemassa: https://www.scuttlebutt.nz/

Sitä voi käyttää esimerkiksi mobiiliklientillä: https://www.manyver.se/ tai desktopklientillä: https://github.com/ssbc/patchwork/releases

Teknisesti hommat vielä early adopter -vaiheessa ja vaatii jonkin verran tutustumista. Mutta kuten /u/shami1kemi1 toivoi, se ei ole federoitu vaan aidosti desentralisoitu.

hi Nomikos, yes there are many other desktop apps that run on the same Scuttlebutt protocol, the most popular of which is Patchwork. Manyverse is only the latest app in the ecosystem. :)

Machine to machine communication, outside the current machine > corporate machine > machine communication systems is where lies our liberation from these corporate networks.

There is one project I have my eye on called scuttlebutt that just started last year.

In this paradigm, there are no moderators. Connection with others on the network encourages healthy behavior towards one another through the use of being able to "close the door" on anyone who you do not wish to communicate with. Therefore if you want to actually communicate with others, your communication needs to be seen by others as having value to others, thus encouraging healthy behavior towards one another (which is the opposite of these corporate networks).

I am not connected yet, but am moving in that direction, and hopefully with contributions to the system itself when I do. All the software is "free software", generally meaning that it is software that belongs to all of us.

There will no doubt, be more of these projects out there, and more to come as we liberate ourselves from the ruling systems currently existing with us.

hi hexydes, you can sync over wifi using either pubs (peers who are always online and have a public ip address) or Manyverse added direct p2p connections using a DHT. in both cases, either the pub or one DHT peer creates an invite code, sends it through some external channel to the other peer, who consumes the invite code.

hope that helps! if not, happy to answer more questions. =^.^=

one system that you might want to consider, though it is fairly new, is Scuttlebutt, which is a distributed chat and archiving system. it is p2p, which means no companies to regulate your art, your work is archived by everyone that subscribes to your feed, etc. https://www.scuttlebutt.nz .

Pas convaincu par ta solution. Ce qu'il faudrait c'est un système distribué — ou éventuellement fédéré à condition que suffisamment d'acteurs différent créent des serveurs — pour éviter au maximum la censure, donc quelque chose comme SecureScuttleButt ou Mastodon.

Check out https://solid.inrupt.com/. It's a technology that allows users to control their own data and share it with applications, rather than applications owning (and potentially selling) their user's data.

https://www.scuttlebutt.nz/ is also an interesting platform I've read about recently. It's a decentralized local protocol called SSB for sharing data without a connection to a central shared network. There's a pretty interesting article about it and it's creator here: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2017/05/meet-the-counterantidisintermediationists/527553/

> A decentralized system is needed.

I looked for sometime. Last year a project started that I did not notice, of course. It's called Scuttlebutt. I haven't tried it yet, as I've been slightly stuck trying to get myself and my machines organized, and just have not taken the time yet to look into it.

However, I started working on a similar project a month ago, but I started from the front-end, and was working my way to the back-end (my eyes have longed tired of reading unruled text). It looks to me like Scuttlebutt started with the back-end. But the intentions behind the project are correct (the empowerment of us humans), which makes the project more than worth-while getting involved in (which I will do once I get myself more organized).

It looks like Reddit is going the way of Digg; just another avenue for selling corporate products. I turned off the T.V. for good many years ago because of the same thing. I will have no problems exploring around for greener pastures again ;-)

> the Fediverse, a decentralized FOSS network

nitpick that actually matters here: Fediverse is not decentralized. It's federated. They have a normal client-server architecture that happens to be friendly to multiple different servers existing.

Fediverse communities are still vulnerable to infrastructure bans. They're more or less immune to app store bans, unless the app store wants to kick off all Fediverse clients.

If it were really decentralized, e.g. a Scuttlebutt group, then it would be immune to infrastructure bans as well. But they haven't done that, and haven't needed to; after getting kicked off Azure they seem to still have hosting and domain registration, without any problem.

there's been a git hub for scuttlebutt for a long time already. https://www.scuttlebutt.nz/applications.html#git-ssb

don't need "blockchain" for that.

People, Fallback forum is here. At the moment it's the best alternative we have. If you don't like it, I suggest you register an account on scuttlebutt and join #Piracy.

Oui d'accord mais les deux ne sont pas exclusifs. En théorie je suis un peu d'accord avec toi ; en pratique, quand je me suis décidé à acheter un smartphone, c'est que je ne pouvais plus faire sans téléphone, c'était trop excluant socialement ou trop pénible pour mes amis. À partir d'un moment si tu passes juste pour un hippie marginal ça devient contre-productif.

Personne ne t'oblige à utiliser Messenger, Twitter, Spotify, Instagram, etc. pour autant. Je suis même assez enthousiasmé par des projets comme Scuttlebutt (que je n'ai pas encore pris le temps de tester), qui montrent qu'il y a encore du chemin à faire, mais qu'on peut quand même être créatif et débridé dans son usage du smartphone.
