   Bluesky sucks. Anything that relies on DNS won't survive the first wave of serious government censorship that is coming.

     @flappypaddle @colinsmatt11 A great thing about nostr is it got a lot of people playing around with low-level network protocols and also generated some slick JavaScript libraries for doing so. There's already cool stuff coming from that space and I expect to see lots more once the crypto drama really kicks into high gear!

     The biggest issue with most of these solutions is that they're all UDP based. Assuming we're in a huge (((culture))) war, the easiest way to break things will be to just create gaps in transmission/response. UDP is stateless, and there's no trivial way to handle missing data/retransmission. TCP is at least tolerant and recoverable in the majority of cases.
     
     We might end up needing to reimplement protocols from the ground up. If we did nodes based on CANBUS, it'd be a lot more tolerant, but that's way above my pay grade.

     @colinsmatt11 Sure, there's lots of ideas. One will eventually catch on as a new standard. DNS is a dead protocol walking because even Congress knows about it and the process to regulate it to death is well-underway. Going back to IP addresses isn't really a big deal, though. You don't memorize phone numbers anymore, do you?

     @caekislove That's the issue they're only ideas not implementations that can do even basic addressing without bs.
     Alternative roots, ENS, Hyper-something.
     All of them are dead already or dying.
     
     Alsp DNS is already regulated more than you realise without any government interference, it would barely change a thing.
     
     I2P is honestly a better solution than going back to basic IP addresses.

     @caekislove While I agree that ICANN is a terrorist organisation do you know of any other address resolver protocol?
     
     People aren't going to type IP addresses or cryptographic hashes in any timeline just to view some rando's thoughts.

     @Suiseiseki Was 0.18 released? I haven't checked gnunet in a while.
