Manyverse is cross-platform and it's the main desktop app nowadays: https://manyver.se The Scuttlebutt.nz website hasn't been kept up-to-date. SSB's development is also decentralized, so this means that not everyt

Hi, I'm the creator of Manyverse. We definitely want to be on F-Droid, the reason it's not there at the moment is merely technical. Manyverse is a beast to compile on F-Droid servers, requires compiling Node.js (Mobile) from scrat

Hi! I'm the creator of Manyverse. That's right, it's using a ton of space. We are currently working on a new protocol extension for SSB targeted at solving exactly this. Here's a presentation from some months ago, https

As I shared with you on Twitter (1), I think the definitions of the terms might have been misleading. For instance, although the charts use the word "salary", in my blog post I defined what those terms meant: > ...how much year
