- hot_gril 3y agoI'm not interested in many decentralized things. I have multiple chat apps from separate companies on my phone, that's my decentralization.
- r3trohack3r 3y agoSSB is basically RSS, but with nice guarantees to prevent the RSS server from lying to you! Take an RSS feed and do the following: * Hash each entry in your RSS feed including the hash from the previous entry in the feed * Sign that hash with your private key You now have the original SSB data structure! It has overhead. It adds 64bytes for the signature and 32bytes for the hash. But that overhead is pretty small for most RSS feeds I've seen.
