@kaniini I have been giving a lot of thought on how to do sub-threads correctly as well. I think both problems are very similar. I just dont think either will work if you keep the keywords free form without some mechanism to create congruity.

@LWFlouisa Hard how? We have "Perfect forward Security" which allows for key exchange with some rather nice security guarantees.

@LWFlouisa There are QC resistant cryptographic algorithms that can run on conventional computers. None of them however rely on the difficulty to verify prime numbers however.

@mangeurdenuage Well regardless I have no doubt GS is older. With that said I'd love to see a matrix of features that compare the various ActivityPub compliant software. I am running Mastodon for my instance purely because I liked the expiernce the most.

@kaniini im not sure i agree, its the same reason the hash tag system isnt effective at creating topic-based lists. On any one topic there are dozens of iterations of hash tags used to describe it. So the system doesnt work too well. I dont think the solution is viable or workable without some tweaks. But could be made workable with the right considerations.

@Sander Does this service come standard at that restaurant or do you have to pay extra?

@mangeurdenuage I am aware, I just didnt think about it at the time. Though I could swear mastodon is older than that, I thought i remember seeing it more than a year ago.

@kaniini im not sure that addresses the problem. If you dont have consistency in the keywords then you cant create sane rules to take advantage of it.

@LWFlouisa Anything based on primes at all will fail against a QC.

@kaniini The issue here is that you either need a global agreed on set of keywords (in which case you cant handle cases outside of the list) or everyone needs to accept that the system wont work too well.

@mangeurdenuage @maiyannah Ahh thanks, I just assumed it was mastodon. Perhaps that is why

@mangeurdenuage Where is the source for your instance hosted? Do you know if your working off a modified version of the server maybe?

Me: "No, they taste funny."

@Gongzero Lots of brilliant people never get recognized sadly.

A waterfall I passed while hiking through Yellowstone during the winter.

@LWFlouisa Well hard to compute isnt guaranteed to always be hard to compute. Most cryptography today will be useful against a Quantum Computer.

@Gongzero Yea its always amazing when a non-math guy solves something that has been stumping math guys for a while.

@xrevan86 @mangeurdenuage hmm I dont see a preview do you? did I miss a step?

@xrevan86 @mangeurdenuage So im going to add a link to a youtube video of mine here, lets see if it shows a preview?
