> If I don't like the c# library I'm using to build XMPP, I can rip it out and pick another one

which already implies they each have different features or lack thereof, which is exactly the exact same situation you have in XMPP with a lot of fragmentation,

in fact, it is better if people don't create their own chatmail core implementation

if Delta Chat becomes evil, the core is open and you can just fork it and keep using it, no one can take anything away from you

@fastfinge if you don't want to have a shared-effort security-audited implementation that everyone uses, but instead waste resources with several people re-implementing the wheel and causing incompatibility between clients, assuming people want to have to deal with "ah Paul your client don't support this and that"

then in fact, you will only make more damage than help the chatmail ecosystem, please, keep ruining xmpp 🙏

@feld @jae

@fastfinge not at all, but you are free to have your own wrong opinions, have a nice day

WOW decentralized and ENCRYPTED social media over #chatmail this is such an epic prototype!

the fun part is that by using chatmail:

- DMs are already end-to-end encrypted
- your identity is your encryption key and doesn't depend on a single home server
- your profile is basically uncensorable

since you need to give people your invite link it is kind of like private social network

@gianmarcogg03 the domain registrar's nameservers/DNS seems to be having problems

this doesn't affect sending because the ArcaneChat client will keep remembering and using the IP directly even if DNS is down, but for receiving you will need to have an extra relay, ideally everyone should be using multiple relays by now

this will be automated in the future so people don't just onboard in a single arcanechat server
