the biggest obstacle for bitchat dev is setting up a mesh in a controlled environment for systematic testing.
I'm afraid I'll have to get a few dozen phones at some point.


source-routed noise-encrypted direct messages in a bitchat mesh.
pretty cool, you can see that the DM from "p6" to "p8" and the received ACK travel through two different routes back and forth.
sup nostr, what are you working on?
can someone with an ancient 32 bit android try to run this with android studio or try the zip that contains 32 bit APKs for old androids?

the internet is fucked.
- govs can turn off the internet for everyone whenever they want, surveil entire populations, and attack people’s privacy
- few corps control the physical infrastructure and can censor websites, domains, block protocols or entire countries
- billionaires and mega corps control social media and manipulate news, politics, brainwash entire populations
- AI already producing infinite slop responsible for the majority of all new content on the internet today
the internet is so fucked.
twitter isn’t the global public square. it’s a mall.
