polyproto A refreshingly simple, decentralised, federated protocol. No more losing friends, followers or messages if your old homeserver sunsets. Feel free to migrate to another homeserver at any time, even if your old homeserver has shut down ages ago.

We have our own 88x31 now, too! It's not the most beautiful one out there, but I did make it myself! Embed it wherever you want :)

gloss over THIS! neocat_cool (the specification has a glossary now)

technically, we already had one waaaayyyy back in the olden days, but that was a long time ago

@hsza @algernon given how bad (as in featureless) their mobile apps are, you wouldn't even think that's the case. AI bros are usually the first to have agents stuff their software with 30000 features. but the ios app has largely been the same over the past year. you cannot even move messages, ban users... so much functionality is still missing there. i genuinely wonder where all the token spendage went? -@star

@hsza @algernon I think it's actually better like this. Being led by a foundation instead of just a singular company makes the leadership behind Zulip more diverse in the sense that, hopefully, profit-making incentives will not be the motive behind steering decisions. I think this sounds promising, especially since the people joining Anthropic have pledged to only be on the board of directors temporarily.

@hsza @algernon No, that's not what the linked posts read, IMO

@hsza @algernon Isn't the message "we are leaving Zulip for Anthropic"?

@hsza @algernon Why are we being mentioned? What's the request here?

@TheQuinbox @alexia I am very sorry to hear that neocat_floof_sad It really seems that you just cannot really ever win when it comes to software, and that sucks so much

@TheQuinbox @alexia not meaning to bikeshed, this is a genuine question: is it codeberg, or forgejo in general?

@Gnuxie @alexia This is a very vague question. Could you perhaps specify further, so that I can try to answer it in a way that satisfies you?

@TheQuinbox @alexia I am trying my very best when it comes to making an accessible development space. I keep learning new things on how to make things more accessible and apply them as soon as I have a clue on how to. If something turns out to not be accessible, then I consider that a failure of our efforts, try to improve on it immediately, and try to change processes to not have a failure like this happen again. That is all I can say regarding this. :)

@j0lol @alexia Hi! For a list of good-first-issues, we have issues.polyphony.chat. Our main chatroom is polyphony.zulipchat.com. I'd be happy to see you there! espeon_love

@Stellar @alexia And for the platforms highly unlikely to add native integration of polyproto-chat to themselves, we'd love to provide the best, most seamless bridges in existence to make cross-platform interactions feel as delightful as possible.

@Stellar @alexia We also would like to closely work together with as many services as possible to make for a big, shared userbase of interoperating chat services. Noone wants to constantly have 5 applications open to reach all their friends

It took 3 months, but the first major parts for OIDC in polyproto have landed: codeberg.org/polyphony/polyproto-dot-org/pulls/104
