Happy new #peer2peer dev-world!

Finally I got my #radicle seed node up and kicking. Updated with recent released radicle. Running the radicle-explorer.

https://seed.pipapo.org/

Now I think about putting gitea to rest.
What do you think?

Of course this comes with some changes:

* Contributors will need to use radicle too when they want to PR something or open issues (git clone will work just fine). This probably/certainly raises some entry barrier.

* Easier administration for me since I don't need to tend the influx of bogus account creation requests some bot armies do on gitea. There is much less state (aka close to nothing) to backup.

* radicle is still young, there are a lot things missing. Esp the UX/discoverability could be better.

I've been on the lookout for a publishing pathway straight from my #Obsidian vault that is easy, resilient, and open-source.
Now the solution has presented itself:

Simply initialize a #Git repository in a directory of the vault, populate it with stuff to publish and commit.

Then initialize a #Radicle repository in the same directory and watch as your knowledge spreads across the decentralized internet.

You can always view the published repo using the radicle-explorer:

https://app.radicle.xyz/nodes/seed.radicle.garden/rad:z4JGwEBbGhBhqYNMHiQSLt7wQQbTi/tree/technologies/radicle.md

The neat by-product of this method using git is that it makes it stupid easy to collaborate on the knowledge base, fix typos, dead links, etc.
So fundamentally extensible by the public.

Radicle itself then enables this collaboration to be censorship resistant, especially when used with #Tor.

if you know good repos to seed, hit me up!

I think I finally have this thing complete - the paper is live hosted on a little test node, also lives as README.md on the GitHub.

Really exciting new features announced for upcoming @radicle protocol versions!!

1. Canonical references (branches, tags, releases)
2. Identity improvements: more #DID methods, e.g. #bluesky ‘s `did:plc` / `did:web`
3. Multi-device identity
4. Agent repositories for richer user profiles

Really looking forward to the
@radicle meetup in a couple of hours in #Berlin !

Some interesting presentations and exciting announcements coming up !

Don't miss it if you're in the area! ;)

Some time ago, I had started working on a GitHub Action that would mirror my code from #GitHub -> #Radicle .

It couldn't work at the time, so all I got was a very stale PR ...

2+ years later, PR #22 has been resurrected and merged !

With it, any new contributions to https://github.com/gsaslis/greek-names-in-software will be automagically mirrored to the #peer2peer #radicle network!

Next up: convert this to a reusable #GitHub #Action, to make re-use easier and write some docs, of course! ;)

Watch this space!

How do you feel about the option to download source code archives and binary distributions of open source software over Bittorrent?

Because I had the idea to distribute my free and open source software over Bittorrent as an alternate way while also making them resilient.

The source code archives and binaries will have checksums and be GPG-signed for integrity and authenticity.

Just discovered that the #Beaker #Browser project has been archived. I seemed to have missed this in-between moving jobs. Is there a decent browser based peer-to-peer alternative anyone can point to? I especially loved the ability to self-publish via #markdown - quick + simple. Recommendations gratefully received!

#Radicle is an open source, peer-to-peer code collaboration stack built on #Git. Unlike centralized code hosting platforms, there is no single entity controlling the network. Repositories are replicated across peers in a #decentralized
manner, and users are in full control of their data and workflow.

Kennt jemand von euch ein Programm, dass den Austausch von grossen Dateien plattformübergreifend von Client zu Client über eine direkte, verschlüsselte Verbindung ermöglicht, ohne dass man sich manuell um #VPN, #SSH Tunnel oder ähnliches kümmern muss?

Ein bisschen wie #FileSharing, nur privat und sicher.
