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 :)

@parrot You make a good point. PURRs and how those work could also use some explanation on the homepage, yeah. You can file issues regarding anything you can see on the website by scrolling down to the footer and clicking the corresponding link! neocat_polyproto

This is an ambitious and large project, and I am just a small catdogthing, powering through. Working on this demands I learn lots of new things, both of technical and organizational nature, but also demands I outgrow aspects of my character which might hinder the process. And aaaaall of this combined takes time. But all great things do... neocat_shy

Extremely grateful for everyone following the project in any capacity, and even more grateful to those who spread the word. It's incredible to receive such a great level of support and encouragement for something that means so much to me. celeste_hearts_trans neocat_flush

also took it upon myself to rewrite the polyproto-dot-org nix flake in a painful few hours of scouring the internet for any sort of documentation for how to package and build yarn projects. oh, and treefmt! but treefmt, prettier and co. are luckily documented much better :)

It has been a good weekend for the polyproto website! Layout shift in the specifications was fixed, accessibility has been improved, and the specifications have been made more legible! neocat_up__w_

Also, headings h2-h6 are now always bold and colored relatively distinctively to make distinguishing between the different levels of headings a good bit easier.

Apparently, Mermaid diagrams aren't accessible by default, for reasons I could not possibly explain to you, given that in sequence diagrams, all data is already labeled, named, and has relationships applied to it, which could easily just be converted into a text description.

Anyway, after learning about this fact an hour ago, all our mermaid diagrams now have hand-written (screenreader accessible) description texts, as well as the full suite of aria attributes (aria-labelledby,
aria-describedby, aria-label, aria-roledescription) to hopefully fix this issue.

Another website update! After years of suffering from Docusaurus disease, linking to page anchors should now finally work without shifting your layout, making you end up at a completely different position in the spec than the one you got linked to. Oh my god that was so annoying

Trial it by clicking on this link; you should end up at section "7.1.1 Redirects" neocat_science polyproto.org/docs/protocols/core#711-redirects
