Just added a tool to help free up disk space used by blobs in Poncho Wonky.

#SecureScuttlebutt keeps moving forward regardless of naysayers.

If you're running Patchwork, you should consider migrating to my fork Poncho Wonky.

#SSB #Decentralization

Has #Scuttlebutt #SSB #SecureScuttlebutt already solved the infinite storage problem? Or does it still use a forever growing blockchain?

#RightToBeForgotten #PermanentRecordsConsideredHarmful

Lots of exciting #decentralization protocols and technology out there. Some are not ready for usage, others are not following the paradigm I prefer, I love that we're spoiled for choice.

IMO I still love #SecureScuttlebutt, for me it is still the best offline-first local-first gossip protocol out there. Yes, it has dangerous corners and design issues, but it works and I can build apps with it for my friends.

Not sure if anyone's still using Secure Scuttlebutt, I was for a while, but lost my keys on dead laptop :(

#SecureScuttleButt #SSB

Wrote a little piece about getting back into #SecureScuttlebutt #development. Today marks three months since I decided to fork and improve #Patchwork:

#SSB still my favourite #decentralization technology :3

If you've been wanting to give #SSB #SecureScuttlebutt a try, there's a new video walkthrough on getting started with Tilde Friends by the creator of the app: https://media.tildefriends.net/w/24mJsAgsQ5tf173A7qn3wv

Cory has made so many improvements to the app, probably easier to get started with SSB than it's ever been.

If you have any questions, I'm here to help!

Hey y'all, for the past month or so I got really interested about the project Secure Scuttlebutt, so after taking the time learn more about it, I thought would be nice to try that in a game.

I don't know much about cryptography, but I tried my best to make it work. There are still a lot of things missing from the original protocol (like secret handshake, etc)

#ssb #securescuttlebutt

The other day Mrs List and I were talking about when the kiddos should start having their own phones. We didn't really come to a conclusion besides "Not yet, but soon enough to upset some of the other parents we've encountered."

I kind of wish I had the resources to make a dedicated @pzp or #SecureScuttlebutt device (maybe isolated from the main SSB network) and give one each to the kiddos and their friends.
