Since this is trendy I got my own Doom Coding setup going with termux, tmux, mosh over yggdrasil to codex running on my home laptop.

Redesigned the Decent composer as a modal. Try it decent.evbogue.com If I use AI am I always supposed to say "thank you GPT5.2 and Codex" or at some point do I just say I did it?

So nearly a decade ago I forked ssb (secure-scuttlebot) and made a client called "Decent" with Bootstrap 2. Now, with a lot of help from AI, and one afternoon, you too can experience the magic. Ships w/ ssbc by default. Repo: tangled.org/evbogue.com/... Lite client: decent.evbogue.com

btw this is really annoying and should have an override button or not even be a blocked post for me. I do not block this person. cc @pfrazee.com @alexbenzer.com i had to use a third party viewer to know what the thread was about. trolls are obviously using this feature to silence discussions

this again illustrates to me why Bluesky fails during a sensible conversation. I did not block this poster, why are they blocked for me? and now I only have a memory of what they said? I have a high tolerance for discourse. This moderation strategy won't survive 2028.

is this what feeling the agi (a ghost intelligence) is like? I got an almost full anproto reactive-native client going this evening. well, it's almost 2am. thx ai? code not public yet, it's slop.

This is cool! and reminds me how many great communicators and developers are on atproto. My most liked post this year was offering to work at Bluesky to implement edits. Should I apply for the 3rd time?

ANProto on ATProto is live. I've always wanted to demonstrate that the authenticated non-networked protocol can run over the authenticated transfer protocol so here it is: anonat.anproto.com thanks to @j4ck.xyz for the 0auth demo server. Repo: tangled.org/evbogue.com/...

Everett Bogue 🔵 @evbogue.com · 30/11/2025
Some progress on ANProto over ATProto. Soon you will be able to centralized your an posts on one pds! Or use this in conjunction with other networking strategies such as Websockets and Trystero.

I asked AI to try and recreate @pfrazee.com's first (?) stab at a client for @dominictarr.bsky.social's secure-scuttlebot and this is what I got. I will admit the hexagons took a lot of human-in-the-loop to get right. This is a non-working web page, but does anyone want to see it in action?

This is SSBD (securescuttlebot-deno). Yes, more vibe coding. This uses a REST-bridge to download node ssb posts and load them into a SSB-Deno PDS that runs on the server and the client. Want to try it?

patchbay-classic in the ssbc repo now has chronological feeds. (ssbheads will recall that ssb classically sorts the log by the time you receive new messages) try it at ssb.evbogue.com or clone, build and join the network

For a long time scuttlebot "lite clients" were broken. I gave OpenAI's Codex 15 minutes to try and figure out how to fix them and here's their answer. Yes, the keypair is in the browser where it should be. Anyone want to try this, or audit this code? I'll push to gh.

I was digging around in the ssb-server code from a decade ago and I accidentally dug up some screenshots of the original "Phoenix Network" client for secure-scuttlebot.

Here's a prototype! No ponzi required. Unless we are considering AI a ponzi. I wasn't in the mood to code today, so this is all GPT5/4. It uses anproto.js and apds.js under the hood. And I even convinced ChatGPT to learn hscrpt! I'll clean up the code and push to github sooner or later

I tracked down and fixed the duplicate messages issue on Wiredove! It turns out somewhere the trailing equals on the anproto signatures were being stripped and since we hash the signatures this created two message records. Enjoy, a duplicate free environment:
