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.
