We're building an open social media protocol that @jack says should have existed from the beginning.
This isn't about just one company, or tech project, or protocol. It's a community of people & projects figuring out how to make a better future together.

Major Update to planetary.social. We've rewritten the core secure scuttlebutt engine and the frontend. It's fast and responsive now.
Social media, where you choose the algorithms, works offline, is a user controlled commons.

Looks like @jack is making his opinion about Twitter's problems very clear on nostr.

Let’s talk about building a better social media environment which supports humanity rather than stoking conflict to generate profit.
8 Dec 2022
What's next #BeyondTwitter ?
Could social media unite people, instead of divide?
How can social tech be a healthy catalyst for cultural evolution?
How can we do #SenseMaking on all scales? Even on global scale.

Private groups are coming to scuttlebutt. @manyver_se has achieved a major milestone with the completion of an initial js implementation of private groups and new feed encoding system that will enable multidevice and delete support! manyver.se/blog/2022-11-25

⛵️swabbing @planetaryinc decks & love this *postdigital* vibe:
"#Scuttlebutt works offline just like email clients... You can write [messages]...offline & they will sync later when you connect again. Why not take your computer outside & write to your friends from under a tree?🌳

Quick video demoing the upcoming room servers that we're building for planetary. Reach out to us if you've got a community wanting to move off of twitter and on to a platform you control. #scuttlebutt #peer2peer loom.com/share/c2874e12ee874…

We're getting ready to roll out our new profile screens in planetary. It speeds up loading time, provides more contextual information, and shows the new message display design for the app.

We’re getting ready to launch a new room service with planetary. A scuttlebutt room is a server that connects people within a community and also hosts public web page for people to connect to you. We’re adding the ability to optionally show your posts & profile.

We'll be asking users to choose a room and then let you set your alias with that room, so you have a web presence for your planetary identity.

The beauty of peer-to-peer social network protocol #Scuttlebutt is that b/c all your posts are shared directly from you, not hosted by a company’s servers, there’s no such thing as “pressure to censor/take down content”, everyone is individually responsible for their posts.

There are new emerging protocols like scuttlebutt that Planetary uses but the production one that works at scale today is Mastodon’s ActivityPub.
30 Oct 2022
For anyone wondering, Mastodon got over 70K sign-ups yesterday alone. Let's keep the momentum going! The "public square" of the web must not belong to any one person or corporation!

Everything new is a remixing of what existed in the past.

We’re using Web3 tech (cryptography) to make Web2 (social) more like Web1 (email, websites, XMPP)
