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 are unapologetically queer, btw verified_trans verified_rainbow polyprototrans
this has, so far, attracted a wonderful group of critters, all of whom have been a pleasure to interact with celeste_hearts_trans celeste_hearts_progress_pride

however, I'll make one thing clear again: if you don't like it, then leave. Our code of conduct clearly forbids any type of bigoted discrimination, including especially racism, ableism, queerphobia, pluralphobia and speciesism: coc.polyphony.chat

@QueerMatters I wish we already were at this stage neodog_pleading we are already starting to develop software for it, but it's all too early to be even tried out by anyone just yet. neocat_floof_sad but good things take time!

@zaire @mei @evening Sadly not, since 95% of the time spent working on it has been just me, so far

@evening @mei Hello neodog_floof_cute
No, but, genuinely: Matrix is not it. We are trying to learn from all the mistakes of XMPP, Matrix and others and make a protocol which is decentralized, long-term sustainable and most importantly accessible to the masses and everyone else by prioritizing UX over all else! Do take a look, if you are interested. polyproto-core is already implementable, even if only 85% finished. espeon_love celeste_hearts_trans

But lots still needs to be done!

The website needs attention, the polyproto-chat specification needs to be written, along with APIs, which need to be designed; Personas—plurality and multi-identity in the core protocol—need writing hands and paws, the chapter on authentication via OIDC needs to be continued, and lots of other issues could use your help! If you are at all interested in our work, please do feel free to join our forum at polyphony.zulipchat.com . ​neobot_spoon_bot​ Together, we can make some big waves!

In the last 7 days, about 30 commits have been made to polyproto-rs, the software development kit for polyproto. Once merged, the changes made will make integrating polyproto into your application much easier and safer than before.

Finishing this large piece of work will unblock work on sonata, the in-development polyproto home server, which will be ready for sending the first ever federated test message over polyproto not too long after that, I hope.

Even though it's mostly just me working on this, things are happening, fueled by spite, stubbornness, lesbianism and the desire to do something about the absolute state of non-centralized communications.

A pretty big PR is coming to polyproto-rs—the polyproto Rust SDK, aiming to improve developer ergonomics by a ton and addressing a good amount of technical debt! codeberg codeberg.org/polyphony/polyproto-rs/pulls/95
This marks the crates' biggest refactoring to date and is particularly important and directly helpful for building sonata, our polyproto-core home server neobot_happy neobot_salute

Digital artwork of the polyproto logo. A cog symbol, split in two along the horizontal axis in the middle. there are 3 distinct sinus-like waves going through the cog in the middle. The inner ring of the cog is a contrasting gradient of purple against the pink cog. The lines in the middle are white, purple and yellow in color.

Also now found on the top left of the website! I only wanted to update the favicon, because the old favicon had no contrast on light backgrounds, whereas this one does; but that also changed the logo on that part of the actual site. I'm keeping it this way now >3_transgender verified_trans

@snugglybun I think that to replace Discord, the UX of the competing application must be not good, but great. Luckily, this is our number one goal with this protocol, and the reason which makes me very optimistic about people actually flocking to it, once it becomes ready.

@tauon Yes! The core specification is definitely at a point where you can feasibly implement it and start sending some basic messages with it.
