Anyone here got any insight into what's happening in the Scuttle-verse? Got any answers to the questions I was asking a year ago.

@strypey
It persists, that's for sure. I'd say there's one daily driver app in active development (Tilde Friends) and a couple more that aren't ready for the average user.
@soapdog just experimentally updated a part of Patchwork, and quite a few people are still using it even though it hasn't been touched in years.
As far as I know nothing you mentioned is compatible with SSB, certain aspects of SSB make interoperability difficult.
All that being said, I'm no expert, I just hang out in the Scuttle-web. The p2p and offline aspects are too cool to pass up.
That pretty much matches my observations. There's still an afterparty going on for the old hands, but otherwise SSB is pretty much a footnote in the history of decentralised social apps.
Which is a shame, because ...

... make it potentially a better model for social networking, even though web-based protocols are clearly better for social media.
