Scuttlebutt – A decentralized secure gossip platform
I've wanted to write a longer blog post about this, but after a few years of working on SSB I appreciate you highlighting these pain points. I think everyone in the SSB maintainer community feels the same way.
My hot take: Scuttlebutt should be something that you can implement yourself in an afternoon. I've done this a few times, using Python, Node.js, and Deno, but I've only implemented the message type. (Not Multiserver, MuxRPC, Secret-Handshake, Box-Strean, Private-Box, or any of the other protocols that are associated with SSB.)
> It feels like Git.
You got it. You could express an SSB chain with Git and a pre-commit hook (to verify messages), but using Git as your database is even harder than learning the toy database that SSB uses.

Scuttlebutt – A decentralized secure gossip platform
There is a browser based demo you can try out at: https://between-two-worlds.dk/.
It's the latest build of https://github.com/arj03/ssb-browser-demo.
If you need an id to follow to get some data, you can try following @6CAxOI3f+LUOVrbAl0IemqiS7ATpQvr9Mdw9LC4+Uv0=.ed25519. You need to manually add either a room or a pub under connections first.
What are some alternatives?
ssb-room - A server to find and connect to other SSB peers – a meeting place. AGPL-3.0
oasis - Free, open-source, peer-to-peer social application that helps you follow friends and discover new ones on Secure Scuttlebutt (SSB).
