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.

Ah! Another resolved issue. Our CI on sonata is now also fully nix-based, and all tests pass again, fully concluding the migration to the newest version of our SDK in our in-development home server project.

codeberg.org/polyphony/sonata/pulls/51

Finding the bug that made this take so long took a lot of time and nerves, but it's finally done.

These same changes are now being integrated into sonata, our in-development polyproto-core home server. The new_left new and improved nix flake new_right and CI-workflow have already been merged and tested successfully, but some code still has to be updated and fixed after major refactorings being merged lately. Causing tests to fail compilation. neobot_orgasm_bsod

The default branch for sonata has been set from main to indev. This change has been made to highlight the activity on this branch, which has not been merged into main for a while, perhaps giving the impression that the repository is not seeing active commits. indev will be replaced by main as the standard branch again, once the in-development changes are stable enough to be merged into that branch. neobot_floof_happy

All has worked out. Personally, I didn't even notice downtime. :)

FYI: polyproto.org hasn't used Cloudflares' traffic proxying for months now. We only kept using them for DNS, because... spoons!

misskey_loading polyproto.org will have some downtime soon-ish, while I transfer the domain from Cloudflare to Porkbun, and transition nameservers from Cloudflare to desec.io.

Right after releasing v0.17.1 of the polyproto Rust SDK yesterday, I went ahead and integrated it into our in-progress polyproto home server. Lots still needs to be done there to make it actually usable, even in an early alpha phase, but this is good progress! blobcatfingerguns polyprototrans

A very large refactor was just merged into the polyproto Rust SDK crate! Work on this commenced on Jan. 31st and includes over 40 commits, which were squashed down to 10 commits in the end. neobot_melt_3

74 files were changed, +3189 lines added and -3646 lines removed (457 lines less, in the end).

Why is this cool?

Well, first of all, finishing off on something you've worked on for almost a month is always cool!

But also, the reason for this refactor were developer UX issues I have noticed while working on the polyproto-core home server "sonata". I noticed, that the crate was written in such a way, that finding out whether any specific certificate was an actor ID-Cert, a home server ID-Cert, or just a plain invalid certificate required a
lot of additional work on the developers' end. What this refactor did, is essentially remove generic "ID-Certs" from the library in favor of two new, more specialized/focused types: "IdCertActor" and "IdCertHs", representing actor and home server certificates respectively. Now, if you are coding and have a IdCertActor metaphorically in front of you, you can be sure, that that ID-Cert has all the specified criteria that an ID-Cert for an actor has to meet, as per the specification.
