Scuttlebutt -一个去中心化的安全的聊天平台

a decent(ralised) secure gossip platform.

Ready to get started?

We have a detailed Getting Started Guide which is recommended if you've got a few minutes.

If you just need to get up and running ASAP here's what you need to know:

Quick Start

1. Install Patchwork.
2. Boot it up and set up your profile.
3. Go to the list of pub servers and get an invite code from one.
4. Click "+ Join Pub" in the top left corner of Patchwork and paste in the invite code.
5. Explore by browsing public posts and channels, expand into your extended network (Click on More > Extended Network).
6. Introduce yourself on the #new-people channel.
7. Follow people you find interesting. You will download content authored by everyone you follow, and everyone who they follow.
8. Have fun, and be respectful of others. The scuttleverse is a nice place.

Features

It's better than email because:

• Private messages are end-to-end encrypted, always.
• You have to follow somebody to get messages from them, so you won't get spammed.
• Your mail can be public broadcasts or private, and you'll only see replies by people you follow.
• The datastructure is a global mesh of append-only logs, which can support new types of data (not just "mail").
• Users are not bound to one server/host (what we call "Pubs") and do not have to trust the servers.
• It's very easy to setup and maintain your own Pub.

It's better than Twitter and Facebook because:

• Private messages are end-to-end encrypted, always.
• The software runs on your device, so there's nobody tracking your browsing.
• The application code is FOSS, so you're free to fork or write new applications without a gatekeeper setting terms.
• Data is saved to your disk, and so the application works offline.
• You can sync directly with friends over Wi-Fi.

Pubs

In order to gossip outside your local network, you'll need to connect to a Pub.
You can find an invite to an available pub at the Pub servers registry.
Get an invite, then in patchwork: click "+ Join Pub" and paste the invite code.
This will cause you to follow the Pub and vice versa. If you haven't synchronized to this social network yet, prepare to wait a few minutes while your local server synchronizes.
