This obviously needs some iteration on the protocol design as other commenters have mentioned, but I'd still be up for partnering up over here at https://anproto.com/

It can be both.

Bluesky does solve a lot of SSBs problems. Both projects can learn from each other. The past can become the future and the present inform the past. This isn't just on Paul, Jay has publically stated that she doesn't believe users

I'd like to encourage anyone who is wary of Bluesky to check out Paul (and Dominic's) back-in-the-day project Secure-Scuttlebot which solved most of the issues that Bluesky suffers from by using content addressable storage and sig

I'd like to speculate, with the recent success of AI agents on the command line with OpenClaw, that perhaps IRC could be the future of AI-enabled chat rooms?

dude you represent yourself as a tony the AI worm. I'll do an:// urls if you bring yourself and your code agent to myproto for an afternoon.

I disagree that Bluesky is in conflict with The Ecosystem Is Moving. In contrast to most decentralized/distributed protocol projects they've managed to maintain control of almost all of their infrastructure with the exception of t

We can have both a directory and use content addressable storage and give people the option of using their own keypairs. They are not mutually exclusive. Bluesky chooses to have a central directory and index.

Yes. SSB and ANProto do this. We actually can simply link to a hash of a pubkey+signature which opens to a timestamped hashlink to a record. Everything is a hash lookup this way and thus all nodes can store data.

git-ssb was (now is again, really) one of those areas where ssb was vastly superior to atproto since all peers hosted the repos

as a side note, nano do you still have a working pub with all of the historical data on it?

I couldn't get any of their latest versions working. The ssb-server was still functioning, but had no working client that I could find. https://github.com/evbogue/ssbc is a working fork with a patchbay lite client

Tyr is probably overkill with Deltachat on top of yggdrasil. The network already is encrypted so it's fine to send plaintext emails as long as there's no 3rd party email hubs.

by evbogue 10mo ago
back in the day a few of us used to run ssb (secure-scuttlebot) over yggdrasil (and cjdns before that) and that system would distribute the private messages to all of the peers within 3 hops. offline peers would just sync up when online and

How does this handle changes to the website. Is the entire website re-uploaded to a Nostr relay, or is there some re-use of old material that's already been uploaded before?

Why should a web page only have a single person generating and injecting HTML into it?

Much of what is described in the article can be accomplished with content addressable storage. If we develop an internet where links describe the integrity of a file then we don't have to worry about the content changing out from under

Both of these systems are rebellions against the structure of secure-scuttlebot, but took different paths as they rebelled. Beyond using different cryptography, the biggest difference between the "ATProto System" and the "Nos

Secure-Scuttlebot (the gossiped social network) died circa 2019 or 2024 depending who we ask. It died before it's time for various reasons including: 1. competing visions for how the entire system should work 2. dependence on early&#x2

Massive money moving around the globe to spit out blerg content? It seems over hyped to me. I get it, I can generate some text on my screen, but rarely does it make me anything other than skeptical.

The signed databases can be decentralized, but the index is mostly controlled by Bluesky and most of the 3rd party apps depend on Bluesky API calls. These API calls are not currently applying these tougher filters that the Bluesky social-ap

Does this article mention anywhere that Dan is a former employee of Bluesky and I just missed that disclosure?
