- sachleen 9y agoThat was the first thing I looked for. Cool that it runs in browser instead of uploading all of my data to their server.
- andrewxhill 9y agoIf you're into that, check out our core project, https://www.textile.photos/ https://www.textile.photos/. The idea is to give you control of all your data (starting with photos) doing backup not on our servers but on a decentralized service called IPFS, so you can maintain control and ownership of your data, always.
- gavino 9y agoThat link doesn't work for me, but this one does https://www.textile.photos/ https://www.textile.photos/ :)
- andrewxhill 9y agothanks! updated in comment too
- timb07 9y agoPlease also check your waitlist signup form processing -- I've tried it multiple times, but haven't received an email yet. (Yes, I've checked I've typed it correctly, and it's not in my junk folder.)
- carsonfarmer 9y agoWere you able to register timb07? If not, let me know and we'll tweak things on our end.
- timb07 9y agoI just tried again, but still no email. Don't your metrics on sign-up rate show a problem? Or is it just isolated to me somehow?
- andrewxhill 9y agoOh! Glad you commented about that, happy you found it though. Thanks.
- carsonfarmer 9y agoFor those wanting to run this locally: git clone https://github.com/textileio/textile-facebook https://github.com/textileio/textile-facebook cd textile-facebook/ python -m http.server # Python 3.x, or python -m SimpleHTTPServer # Python 2.x
- teleclimber 9y agoJust to clarify: the python bit is to run a local webserver. You do not need python to run this project. If you're on the node/npm bandwagon, you may find it easier to use this: https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server
- carsonfarmer 9y agoYes good point, I should have been more clear! Thanks for the clarification :)
- franciscop 9y agoAlternative if you feel extra paranoid: - Load the page - Disconnect from the internet - Drop your zip - Get your files - Clear all page info
- carsonfarmer 9y agoYup this will work. You can also check out the actual JS code to make sure we're not doing anything sneaky with your data: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Common_questions/What_are_browser_developer_tools https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Common_questi...
- tmwed 9y agoKeep in mind that, just because it's open source, and possibly hosted on github pages doesn't mean that the hosted copy is the same as the open-source. Referring to the IOTA seed generator hack that happened earlier this year. (https://thatoddmailbox.github.io/2018/01/28/iotaseed.html https://thatoddmailbox.github.io/2018/01/28/iotaseed.html) (not my site).
- carsonfarmer 9y agoYup, take a look at the page source to be as sure as you can :)
- carsonfarmer 9y agoWe made sure it wasn't uglyfied or minified, so folks who want can see what's up
