This was made to showcase what can be built with the new White Noise CLI, go check it out!
It was vibe-coded in a couple of hours, so beware that there might be some bugs with it, but it works! And the CLI is intuitive enough that AI can understand it and work with it pretty quickly!
That's exactly what we need.
We are currently using nip59 + nip44 customised chat but the roadmap is leading us to the bug free WhiteNoise implementation.
The only question that persist is should we do CAPTCHA to make sure bots are in a dedicated channels only?
Over those we have some advantages, but I'll be honest with you, there's still a lot of work to be done... (multi device for example is gonna be a huge add), and for now they have some advantages over whitenoise (mostly that they're more mature)
Better than telegram:
- Nothing is hidden, the entire code end to end is opensource
- No central servers, we cannot be compelled by law to release information, because we literally do not have it
Better than bitchat:
- We have MLS, which provides forwards and backwards secrecy
Better than simplex:
- We're not associated with a shitcoin (flux)
- We are nostr native
But most important of all, we are an open protocol, one that gets improved over time, and one that anyone can contribute to, and implement if they have the technical ability,
The instructions on the readme were wrong. Sorry about that!
That's fixed now so whenever you decide to take a look it should be easier to set up 😁
Sorry for the frustration 😅
