How big of a group chat are you wanting? The biggest discord I’m in has like 200 people I think

I’m in a 3000 person group chat in Keet. Works shockingly well.

Mainline DHT also works insanely well and is perhaps the most distributed technology on the planet.

No idea why IPFS blows, but it does. We should be able to simply see if the tech sucks or not for ourselves.

You can use it today and it works quite well actually.

There’s no point in arguing theory when we can see it in practice.

Pubky (more like twitter whereas Keet is just a messenger) also uses a DHT

That's why the best, richest, happiest countries are those closer to the equator where the sun is stronger, such as Congo, Rwanda, Uganda, Indonesia, Colombia and Brazil.

SimpleX = phones + servers

Keet = phones

No matter how super advanced your server cryptography is, if someone gets your phone, they have your data.

So skip the servers and just use P2P. Smaller attack surface, easier to harden.

The guy seemed almost perfect but turned out to be just an ordinary petty evil pervert.

(unrelated to the safe browsing topic) but also, we have DNSSEC, which is very strong compared to CAs, and DANE.

WHY DO WE KEEP USING CAs? nostr:note19fazejpnayrwd6ew9gw4xtuz434lqsnf4gjchy6yqclgwe3d7p9s7ezjf7

I’m often tempted to list all the “conspiracy theories” out there and put a percentage on how likely I think they are to be true.

Like covid came from a lab (too obvious) is 99.99%. The moon landing was faked (20%), etc. We don’t know very much for sure, and these percentages would change as more information comes out.

Of course, putting numbers on it creates a false impression of precision when there is none. My take on the moon landing being fake is “plausible but not likely.” I just made up 20 percent. It might as well be 5 percent or 30 percent. I would be surprised if it were ascertainably verified as fake. But I would not be shocked — at least not anymore.

You will take criticism from both sides for doing this too. The normies will be like, LOL, you nut job, you really think there’s a 20 percent chance the moon landing was faked!

And then other people will be like, LOL, you credulous normie, you think there’s an 80 percent chance we had that tech in 1969 and haven’t been back since!

I don’t claim my numbers are correct. The only thing I know for sure is it’s not zero percent and not 100 either.

I want every technological thing BTC can bring.

I want the newest phone, laptop & TV.

But when it comes to food,

I want the most ancient options available.

Protein powders and other ultra-processed foods are junk.

... There are e-girls? Haven't seen em. It's all Australian economists, cypherpunks and Anarchocapitalists in my feed.

The occasional farmer, too.

If i was china/russia/brics i would be speedrunning bitcoin now that the us is establishing a shitcoin reserve. but what do i know im just a protocol nerd.

Or to out it another way; their candidates were a senile, Parkinson-afflicted corrupt pedo uncle with a crackhead son that ran his dirty errands, and his hasty replacement was a utterly unqualified, benzodiadepine addled cackling hyena, both of which were SO BAD THAT THEY LOST TO A GRIFTER LIKE DONALD TRUMP!

How much worse can they get??

#Bitcoin is the best money humans ever discovered.

BREAKING: Donald Trump’s memecoin, $TRUMP, crashes over -40% as Melania Trump launches her own memecoin.

This is beyond insane.

Gifs & emoji conversations are not for me.

I stopped needing books with just pictures long ago.

🤣
