I was listening to Presidio if you want to check out a Discord - Github replacement on nostr take a look at: https://budabit.org BudaBit has community features like Chat rooms, Forum threads, calendar events and community-fundraising, with deeply integrated nostr-native git collaboration and sophisticated content-level moderation features. You can click through in minutes to create your own test group (use a dedicated test keypair) or visit the budabit group. We have been polishing this project for some time now for open source developer communities wanting more freedom from platforms like Discord Slack or Github. Soon nostr-based CI coming too. We deserve sovereign software to develop freedom tech based fully on open protocols. #gitvianostr

Mostro.network is nostr-native. Haven't used yet

I am convinced that in order to hedge the dependence on data centers we need specialized communities incentivized to run infra for their members. For git servers, nostr relays and blossom media I see this sufficiently solved now that I built BudaBit.org. There exists a fallback path to individual infra of course but the right order is not service provider -> individual, but community infra -> individuals, with community leaders using cloud providers and well maintained self hosted fallbacks. Communities can form a resilient network that mostly makes platforms and cloud providers redundant commodities, especially with nostr discovery.

"Social media" was invented eons ago. Panem et circenses, bread and circus of the Roman era. Its purpose has always been to distract the masses from important topics possibly questioning the authority of the time. This way they could effectively control the population with a small circle of rulers. It relies on the fact that people act differently in masses, they blend into the collective consciousness because it feels like we're part of the group and part of something important. It's actually a powerful way to co-opt real communities into a mass of sheep with convenience and entertainment. In today's mass societies this is even further enhanced with technology. As we fell for traps of the state co-opting all important aspects of society, social media is just another arm of the state to keep us controlled. "Decentralization of social media" is an oxymoron. It will never happen. People love to go to the circus everyone else does, they don't want to ne left out of the gossiping. PSA: Your identity doesn't matter in social media, only the narrative of the mass collective matters. In short, you don't matter. Period. If we ever going to challenge the state and do real grassroots adoption of nostr, it's going to be in strong communities forming a network. Thinking that cryptography applied to social media will somehow decentralize it is like believing that if we create a bunch of empty stadiums and keep the gates of circus maximus open then people will somehow listen to it and spread out. You have to be delusional to think this is ever going to happen. People in the empty arenas are just sobering up to this fact, that is alright. I have no objections to entertainment, not even convenience on its own. I just hope some of us learned a lesson and can move on to doing real cypherpunk grassroot stuff instead of this farce.

#BudaBit is coming nicely together: - Create repos on any platform or forge, control on nostr. One primary remote, any number of mirrors, automatic fallback, health checks and backfilling - Import repos: Import with or without the social data: PRs, issues, comments. Get started easily - Full fledged repo browsing and collaboration - Your community, your fine-grained rules: Add new members and moderators or create forms to fill in. - Event or person moderation, reporting to moderators for review - Rooms, Forum threads, Calendar events - Community-first Web of trust and discovery -... And much more! However I am going to increasingly put more effort into building BudaBit the community in physical as well as in Cyberspace rather than spending most of my time with development as it is now. We must build the future in meatspace just as much, and now that this is usable enough we need to fill it with people who care. Care for freedom and the future of freedom tech. I will strive to nurture this ecosystem through running my own community and help others run theirs. So reach out if you're building sth interesting and want to be part of this new community-driven development experience, or want to start your own group! Share with people who are eager to jump into the wilderness to leave the big tech dependence behind. Cheers

How easy is it to plug in custom logic for access policies? Does this relay support such a thing? In BudaBit I have kind-scoped write policies and a custom moderation engine. It's enforced client-side but would want to mirror that server side optionally. Almost like nip72 just a bit more sophisticated.

Yes, certainly hope so

And so I can have a documented plan with a separate phase checkpoint doc if anything goes wrong and for easier continuation

Codex has it too, opencode doesn't. It's fundamentally a persisted session goal but I found it does too many things auto-pilot so I just designed a similar but more explicit prompt template that I use with a slash command in opencode. With token budget becoming more of a concern I want to have more control over automatic execution and less implicit opaque prompting like /goal

Good point. So how is this different then from Bitcoin? In that sense Bitcoin is the same as tulips and AI

So you think AI will fade into oblivion? People overdo things, bubbles burst but that doesn't mean it's going away. Literally all tech adoption is like this once the utility is identified and adoption accelerates

Use forgejo it is supposed to be better

What kind of app?

Nice! Hope you get some traction, will try it to see if I can recommend this for BudaBit communities! PS: I miss TGFN :)
