Manyverse is a great app, one of several compatible ones which use the secure scuttlebutt protocol.

For ios another open source one is https://planetary.social/ which i wrote.

Great to see this advancing - I met you a 33C3 when this was in the works.

Is it still the case that your identity is connected to a single device?

Soon! We've got the new scuttlebutt metafeed format that will allow us to support multiple devices and a bunch of other interesting things.

So the answer is soon.

it's good to see this is finally being addressed. lack of multi-device support is the one thing that has kept me from using scuttlebutt other than poking around to check things out and it's been several years now that people have been asking for this.

I want multi-device support and a way to delegate all the feed-syncing to an always on device like a raspberry pi or a VPS. That way, when I start the app on my phone or on my laptop, I can see the feeds much faster.

sorry to rain down here but multi-device support is not a feature of metafeeds at all. It only realizes partial replication. It's equally important to grow the network but strictly distinct, all metafeeds are on the same device.

multi-device is only spec'ed but not implemented in what we call "fusion identities": https://github.com/ssb-ngi-pointer/fusion-identity-spec

also, the ngi team has nothing to do with planetary.
