Go the folder where the file is located
in the terminal, and then sudo gdebi gossip (click on tab now it will autocomplete automatically) and then run the command
Discussion
Did it! And now still don’t know how to open gossip lol
Great ! You will find gossip now with your applications in the launcher
Is the launcher the thing that opens when you click the little cube of squares?
Exactly ! 💯
So the only new thing there is something called gdebi package installer, which I can open and pull up info about gossip, but not actually use gossip
You should normally see a gossip icon there, that you can click to access Gossip.
Are you sure the install was completed correctly ?
You downloaded one of the .deb files that were here :
Don’t know what I did, but I seem to have gotten it!
That’s great ! You will love gossip !
Simple but does the job perfectly, with a lot of control over the relays
Next time I can show you how to compile it directly on your terminal, so that you can have the latest features !
Does it take a long time to pull overwrite? Added some relays and logged in, but can’t seem to get anything else to load
Normally it does not take a lot of time to load, did you setup your private key first ?
(Click in the Help tab, there is a detailed explanation on the steps to follow)
Yep! Read that and did that
So you are seeing the feed ? But not the data in the “followed” section ?
Nothing is on the feed except a post I attempted to make, that I don’t actually see on any other clients
Click on relay - Configure - select a few ones there, do you see a relay that connected lately (in the last connected column)
Yes I have 9 relays but they haven’t connected in 10 min
Did you select read/write ? (Sorry if my questions are a bit simplistic, I’m trying to understand the situation)
