Veilid is a peer-to-peer network and application framework released by the Cult of the Dead Cow on August 11, 2023, at DEF CON 31. Seems more promising than I2P.
You must log in or # to comment.
And they use discord for comms.
Pretty sure they are using discord because most people are familiar with it and it is easier to contribute to the project.
Yeah, there are alternatives. Matrix, Zulip for chatting and the entire fediverse for forums and micro-blogging. But they chose big-tech corp #321 and big-tech corp #123 👍
At least they’re on Gitlab. I’ll give them that.
Gitlab is also a big corp
Gitlab = Big Tech? Dude, you have got to be kidding me.
Financially, the year was also marked by record performance. We delivered over $245 billion in annual revenue, up 16 percent year-over-year, and over $109 billion in operating income, up 24 percent.
Fiscal Year 2024 Highlights:
- Total revenue of $579.9 million
I didn’t say ‘big tech’ I said ‘big corp’
Regardless, ‘big tech’ isn’t really a thing its just a buzzword used by the media to describe parasitic capitalism that uses computers
Also gitlab can afford billboards along the 101 in the middle of SanFrancisco so yeah they suck
So then do you define a company with 400 million annually and over 2K employees as Medium Tech? Because that ain’t no mom-and-pop tech shop seeking to undermine the status quo, that’s got to be in the top 10 companies in that space. Obviously MS and Atlassian are bigger, but gitlab is like number 2 for git!
Thats like voting for the lesser evil but still donating to their reelection
Yeah I can’t stand that whole cDc hackers.town thing they have going. Their mastodon is really very boring
I don’t understand why they would rebuild TOR and IPFS. Why not build this into I2P or something?
Comparison between different protocol implementations.
Yeah, they can build on top of I2P. There’s no need to rewrite all that stuff. They could’ve written something that glues everything together and reuse the existing nodes instead of creating yet another network.
Also, I2P has implementations in Java (main implementation) and C++ (i2pd). A rust implementation would be great news.
I really hope… in the future, all people in dbzer0 used i2p as their secondary-main network. newbie this year… and I already amaze with how easy, simple, versatile, and its usefulness in everything… just mind blowin thing I ever found on the internet, personally…
