@GinnyMcQueen yes you can!
@wilkie do you have a recommended starting point to read up on this stuff?

"we are already out of our sphere. We cannot go back. We must choose: either to surrender our existence in a warm and cosy world of controlled memory frames, or to join the new networks, the new grapevines, to discover who we really are at the limit of an information space where we can learn to live."
-- Jacques Vallee, "The Network Revolution", 1982

@SlowRain it's been a while. I studied at Feng Chia for nine months, 2007-2008

I wrote a little bit about the problems I uncovered (quite by accident!) in some common OStatus systems. I also provide some suggestions for mitigating those problems.

@SlowRain nice! I used to live in Taichung. What district are you in? Looks like you're already close to the mountains. I used to love riding my scooter to Dakeng for some hot spring action.

Hi Mastodon/OStatus dev people. Have you ever thought about how your software might work in China?

I've visited China. Interesting thing about its Internet is Bruce Schneier's crypto blog is fine but Google is blocked - and so is all Javascript and ads and analytics that load from Google.com. Soooo many Silicon Valley websites are toast there.

Just something to keep in mind. Dont even assume, eg, github is available everywhere. The fewer off-server dependencies you have the better.
