    @k4r4b3y @rafael_xmr Just poking in to say I also love SSB’s totally decentralized design. It’s what I would choose for maximum censorship resistance.

    That said, the world has basically chosen Federated architectures rather than fully decentralized ones: Matrix, Mastodon, etc.

    An important requirement for a social network… is people

      Where can I begin with SSB? Sadly, almost all of its clients seem like they are abandoned development.

            @k4r4b3y Oh yeah, on phone I used Manyverse. Big props to Andre Saltz if he’s still working on it.

            Just throwing this out there – if I were taking up the task of censorship-resistant online community creation today, I’d probably focus on Matrix. It already has a very solid backend and ability to sync servers; there is a lot of low-hanging fruit in the clients, though

              Andre Saltz

              He left Manyverse development 2 months ago. Someone else hopefully will take up the mantle.

              Matrix

              I don’t think matrix is censorship resistant at all. It relies on DNS, which is centralized. Also, these criticisms of matrix are valid reasons to not pick it imo: https://telegra.ph/why-not-matrix-08-07
