Like #Zot, #SSB (Secure #Scuttlebutt) is a fairly new social network protocol:

-
I'm looking forward to figuring out how to test it. So far there only seem to be desktop clients like:
https://github.com/ssbc/patchwork/
-
SSB seems perfect for the mobile use case. I wonder if or when there will be SSB clients for Android, iOS etc?
-
Here's a run-down on using Patchwork, the flagship #SSB client

thanks @mikedd! I'll add that to the #ReplaceSlack page I'm working on:

-
@mikedd @clacke true, but some software is newbie ready, or at least production ready, while other software is only ready for testing.
-
@clacke @mikedd according to the notes in it's GH rep, mmmmm-mobile is in the latter category. I noted that on my page on replacing Slack
-
hey @mikedd you're involved in dev for #SSB and some of its clients, is that right? @clacke
-
@mikedd @clacke huh, ok. I thought I saw your name on an Issue in one of their GH projects. Active user then?
-
@mikedd @clacke used to be? Why did you stop?
-
@mikedd @clacke "meta" as in all the chat on SSD was about SSB?
-
@mikedd @clacke gah. #SaferSpacePolicing, along with the people it reacts to, is why we can't have cool stuff :(
-
@mikedd @clacke ae, this is a good example of how a community and a platform are not the same thing.
-
@clacke @mikedd I'm looking forward to the new pemaculture.org.nz website going live. I'm hoping we can get more such chat happening there
-
@mikedd @clacke I've just seen too many projects and communities ruined by the way those conversations tend to play out.
-
@clacke @mikedd I get that it's a response to a real problem, that causes real distress for people. I don't have a better solution
-
@mikedd @clacke ae, case in point
-
@mikedd like I said, I don't have a one-size-fits all solution to offer, and there are no silver bullets for social problems.
-
@mikedd but I think a bit of giving people the benefit of the doubt / assuming goodwill goes a long way, in general, but especially online
-
@mikedd this!

@mikedd ae, she got someone fired over dick jokes after tweeting this:

-
@mikedd double standards much?
-
@mikedd nobody should ever, *ever*, lose their living because someone eavesdropped on a private conversation, took offence, and went public
-
@mikedd you mean the permaculture.org.nz link? It's the URL for Permaculture in NZ, and it works for me (redirects to WordPress placeholder)

@mikedd #permaculture? Check out permacultureprinciples.com . PiNZ is the national organization for permaculture activity in Aotearoa
