@mckinley Oh well in that case, I'd redesign the IRC protocol to be more like a combination of what Signal is today but with SMTP like capabilities. A bit like what we've been trying to do with Salty IM -- So-called "federated" instant messaging, with group support and fully e2e encrypted.

@mckinley Define "fundamental internet protocol"? Do you mean fundamental things that make the Internet work like IP, TCP, DNS, various routing protocols like BGP, OSPF, etc? Or things more like application protocols like IRC, HTTP, etc?

@movq To be fair Twtxt has always been quite niche. Yarn picked up interest a bit a few years back, but then things died down a bit. I built yarnd for me, I continue to use it and improve it every now and again. But I guess the only uses we'll continue to see and that includes new folks are folks that give a shit about simple things, and see value in a slow, privacy focused medium? πŸ€”

@movq Well I used to have a handheld GPS device, probably before I lost most of my sight. I didn't really feel that it took ~12m to get a fix, it was usually much faster. You _may_ just find that all this A-GPS thing is all just bullshit anyway and just an excuse to collect and store your GPS location on some random web server that someone else owns 🀣~

If Sam Altman really wanted "AI" to be in the hands of the people, he a) Should not have made deals with multiple devils that turned OpenAI into a proprietary company. b) Sold most of the company to Microsoft.
