@k4r4b3y TBH I stopped paying attention to SSB about 2 years ago, and even when I was active I just used the web interface (and sometimes the CLI for pub management)
@k4r4b3y Oh yeah, on phone I used Manyverse. Big props to Andre Saltz if he’s still working on it.
Just throwing this out there – if I were taking up the task of censorship-resistant online community creation today, I’d probably focus on Matrix. It already has a very solid backend and ability to sync servers; there is a lot of low-hanging fruit in the clients, though
He left Manyverse development 2 months ago. Someone else hopefully will take up the mantle.
Matrix
I don’t think matrix is censorship resistant at all. It relies on DNS, which is centralized. Also, these criticisms of matrix are valid reasons to not pick it imo: https://telegra.ph/why-not-matrix-08-07
@k4r4b3y I got thru #8 and they were all the same nonissue IMO – yes, it’s an append-only log like a lot of decentralized systems and yes that means it’s not inherently linear and that you can’t delete stuff.

Web interface of what? Manyverse?

I’ll look over the rest later
