Bonfire – working to build safer, more open federated tools and communities

For those looking to go even further than federated, to fully P2P social networks, the scuttlebutt protocol is the way to go.

The two best clients for it that are still actively developed are Planetery and Manyverse.

I want to love scuttlebutt but multi-device is critical to me.

Yeah that’s a big pain point that i’m hoping to see figured out soon. It can’t reach mass appeal until that’s handled seamlessly.

Did they fix discovery? I love the concept, but my issue was that I had to connect to people to find people, and the only network I could reach easily was largely people I really didn't want to talk to. I think "Rooms" were supposed to fix it, but they didn't exist yet when I tried it.
