I joined a pub but 90% of the messages in my feed were other people joining the pub and subscribing to topics. 9% were people introducing themselves as new to Scuttlebutt. 0.9% were either talking about Scuttlebutt or unreachable, and 0.1% were actual content.
- nanomonkey 8y agoSounds like you joined during a wave of new people and were only getting posts from your shared pubs. Did you contribute any content yourself and build out a network and thus increase your feed? I've been on for a year now and there is a ridiculous amount of information to read.
- princekolt 8y agoI was held back from using Scuttlebutt because of how convoluted it seems. I browsed the website for 30 minutes and I couldn't find a concise, written explanation of how the protocol works. And now this? If I subscribe to a pub I see all crap everyone is posting? What's the point? I'm better using twitter I really like the idea of a distributed social network, but it needs a simpler, straightforward protocol. And it needs to be free of clutter.
