Also the idea of having to publish your posts to multiple relays just to avoid getting your content banned, censored or otherwise is well umm hmmm ⌘ Read more
Also it’s a push model from client -> relay and a pull model from relay->client (although I guess clients are expected to remain connected to relays via websockets for periods of time) ⌘ Read more
@bender Some of they key ideas in it are sound, like using cryptographic keys as identities and signing all posts. That part is fine 👌 The protocol itself is _actually_ a bit “meh”, it’s kind of complicated, despite the claims. I guess you just shove JSON shit™ at the relay over a websockets channel? 🤔 Not really sure on the choice of cryptography there eithe ... ⌘ Read more

@abucci _@anthony.buc.ci_ I _think_ so. The backend already knows how to measure “inactive feeds” so that shouldn’t be too hard to build, just have to build an interface around it “somehow” – I think I recall telling you about a weekly email you’d get, but if you haven’t gotten one, then you’ve been nu ... ⌘ Read more
@abucci _@anthony.buc.ci_ Really don’t need to store the _real_ email at all, just a token, using the same reset password jwt flows. Let it expire after like a few minutes. Click the link, verify token, cool, redirect to login, Otherwise, drop it on the floor. ⌘ Read more
