Just imagine getting your computer compromised by these cute sweaters

Yes, a simple feed is really easy to host. The JSON Feed format is very simple and perfect for this kind of app. Thanks!

Hi, I'm the developer of Beluga.

Beluga is a reaction to all the Twitter craziness. I've been thinking about this idea for a long time and finally decided to build the app a few months back.

The idea is straightforward. Can we build a Twitter-like experience without central servers or a single point of failure? RSS was my point of reference, and that's why Beluga is essentially a feed reader/writer.

When you publish a post, Beluga will create a beluga.json and upload it to your S3-compatible server. Other users can follow you and get updates by fetching that file. The beluga.json file is JSON Feed compatible to maximize interoperability. The app also publishes a beluga.xml which is a standard RSS feed. Users can follow your Beluga feed from the app or from their favorite RSS reader.

To make the app even more accessible, a static mini-site is generated and published to your S3-compatible online storage.

Here's my mini-site: https://beluga.gcollazo.com

Please give the app a try. Setting up an S3 bucket might be difficult, so feel free to reach out to me, and I will help you [email protected].

Upcoming features:

- Easy publish without setting your own S3 bucket - Read-only mode - Multiple device sync - Support for more S3 compatible providers - Support for GitHub pages - Mastodon interoperability

Not a good fit for that. But you might be able to use HTMX on the settings page of that spreadsheet app.

very nice, needs some contrast

So the plan is to break the internet or get rid of all rich apps and just use the browser for crappy static pages?

A todo app where anyone can put shit in

Cool project!

Finally a DDOS solution for the Chrome browser
