An effective P2P network should be the end goal. has the peer-to-peer SSB protocol.

Is or the the social network of the future?

It's time to build our own Internet scuttlebutt.nz/

Scuttlebutt Protocol Guide ssbc.github.io/scuttlebutt-pro

Scuttlebut & the fediverse both have many clients (software apps). However, Scuttlebut is a social network built on the peer-to-peer SSB protocol.

The Manyverse (For Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux) looks similar to . manyver.se/

Manyverse is a social networking app with features you would expect: posts, likes, profiles, private messages, etc. But it's not running in the cloud owned by a company, instead, your friends' posts and all your social data live entirely in your phone (or computer). This way, even when you're offline, you can scroll, read anything, and even write posts and like content! When your phone (or computer) is back online, it syncs the latest updates directly with your friends' phones, through a shared local Wi-Fi or on the internet.

Manyverse already works, but it is still in beta. Download it and give it a try manyver.se/

and use centralized computing systems; therefore, the control and management of the systems lies entirely in the hands of one provider, who must be trusted to treat the data and communication traces securely.

The that incorporates et al. is a semi-centralized computer system where the control and management of the systems lies entirely in the hands of instance administrators.

As a zero-trust alternative, peer-to-peer (P2P) technologies promise to support end-to-end communication, uncompromising access control, anonymity and resilience against censorship and massive data leaks through misused trust.

Online folk lies & BS in general.

Some, not so smart folk, lie on social media (who knew) as they do offline. Even too themselves

Without going into detail why they do this, here is an effective psychological heuristic to mitigate online folk BS (context ). Give all online folk the benefit of our doubts. Take them at their word (face value). If their words are scientifically BS, so be it.

If their "wit" is actually unethical grandstanding, so be it.

You're looking at the problems not the solutions to those problems.

1. The policies need to be updated because many people can't afford to buy land - so as to improve it's ecological condition.

Then, and only then, when more people are living low ecological impact lifestyles, will we see the necessary reductions in the countries net greenhouse gas emissions.

It's that obvious!

What is race?, not - what is race?

Some folk would call me "white" (presently, my skin tone is more of a lighter shade of brown as it's been summer in the UK)

However, my ancestors that lived in Africa had a natural darker skin tone than me (e.g., a more darker shade of brown). But, my ancestors then migrated north.

If it wasn't for racists, & if l had the choice, l'd choose to be "black" (a darker skin tone protects my skin better from solar radiation).

What is race?

Well, they're loaded so why do they care if they waste resources?

The country of Wales is leading the way on . The One Planet Development policy proves that It's relatively easy to live a good lifestyle based on far less resources & power.

Do you think burning fuel that causes local & atmospheric air pollution improves health compared to non air polluting methods?

The Future Gen Act must include zero air pollution as part of it's methodology. That's much easier when the culture is using less resources

What's a good way to use less resources? SHARING

Whilst folk argue & greenwash about climate change, or simply try to ignore the subject all together, they have missed the entire point of the debate.

There is a general solution! that sustains the important aspects of a modern way of life

Start promoting with the aim of living the solution.

It's enough to make someone think that many people prefer climate virtue signalling on social media. Talking the talk, though are not quite as enthusiastic when it comes to walking the walk.

Amazon, too big too succeed at being a sustainable business. However, not too big to sell many products using greenwash & greenwash climate offsetting rhetoric.
