also FluxDash, my work in progress Geometry Dash Fluxer bot, is now on crates.io!

The signup workflow for my Matrix instance is giving even my more technically adept friends issues. I shouldn’t have to also host a wiki for people that work with technology to be able to use my instance.

That and the fact that Matrix was born out of the IDF have just soured me on the whole thing.

I’m probably going to scrap it and give Fluxer a try next.

So far the Principia #Fluxer community has 80 members now!

...It's pretty silent, the member count is a bit inflated by temporary accounts from people checking it out, and I haven't gotten around to setting up bridging yet. But getting Principia onto the discovery page seems to have been a really good idea.

I haven't kept up with Fluxer's developments during the past weeks but it does seem to have gotten a lot more stable by now. Hopefully the mobile apps will be releasing soon.

Quiero salirme de Discord

There's been a lot of discussions in the Fluxer Developers community on what federation and E2EE should be like.

I recently suggested looking at using #chatmail from @delta for the E2EE implementation for the following reasons:

• Designed for federated networks
• Standards-based (it's literally just well-done encrypted email)
• Has a practical implementation
• Has a solidified spec
• Audited
• Already aligned with the #fluxer feature roadmap (such as webxdc support)
• Simple client implementation story (use the core Chatmail lib)
• Can use battle-tested Trust & Safety tooling made for email

But I do wonder a bit on whether this would be a good idea, or rather integrating Delta Chat/Chatmail alongside another chat protocol. It's been done with the Signal Protocol before, which has been suggested in the E2EE channel too but I'm not aware of any examples of the same for Chatmail.
