@maffsie

that wouldn't be the case if queer.party was really decentralized #p2p like freenet, hyphanet, scuttlebutt manyverse tildefriends, #web3, (or at lame case #nostr)
So refugees are welcomed to try those.

There is also promising project AutonomiDweb, but I haven't seen any users posting content there.

You could also try http://mitra.social & #hubzilla , both should have nomadic identities.

Follow me & boost if you interested in sutainable decentralized tech.

In a month I'm starting a bi-weekly-ish "p2p lecture" series in @offline!

It's about radical peer-to-peer, local-first, convergent data-types and networking.

14.10. at 7pm is the first session.

Read everything about it here:

#p2p #localfirst

What do we really need:

A user-controlled blob of data that syncs across devices.

A conflict resolution flow (because yes, sync is hard, but solvable if you design for it).

A protocol path that is not “just another cloud,” but part of a commons.

This is what the #OMN path is sketching out:

Bridging client/server with #p2p flows.

Giving people the power to hold their own history (rather than leasing it back from Google/Meta).

Doing this inside a trust-based #4opens framework (#OpenData, #OpenSource, #OpenStandards, #OpenProcess).

Keeping it #KISS so a normal-ish human can understand what’s happening.

It’s not “a new app.” It’s plumbing — the pipes and tanks that allow history, content, and flows to move while staying in your hands.

Not the same as a sync library, but the same path: moving from stranded silos → cloud capture → trust-based decentralisation.

#KISS

OUT NOW! Our Part II Blog Post on building a convergent, offline-first Access Control CRDT!🍿🪩🧨

https://p2panda.org/2025/08/27/notes-convergent-access-control-crdt.html

Integrity, Provenance, Partial Ordering, Linearization, Concurrency, Conflicts, Consensus, Finality, Equivocation, Byzantine Fault Tolerance and Eventual Consistency, ..

This contains a lot of notes about what you might want to know when building a data type which should be collaborative, convergent and decentralized.

I was very pleased to discover that Wikipedia provides torrents of the entire English encyclopedia and that they're only about 20GB. I really thought it would amount to more than that, and I'm happy to finally have a local copy of Wikipedia. This doesn't include media like images and audio, or userpages and talk pages, but the text is by far the most critical part to have backed up.

I doubt I'd be able to host all the media at once, but this makes a totally #P2P (or #federated) encyclopedia look very possible.

I regularly try to reverse engineer most apps including #tiktok on #p2p networks. Everybody needs a hobby 😝

After using TikTok for a while I still do not know how to build that on a #p2p decentralized network.
