    @bobjonkman “There is no one in your community with that name.”

    I suspect that without pubs or direct LAN connections, it isn’t possible to use #SSB.

    I’ll see if I can connect to the same pub server that @storm is using: scuttlebutt.us ... though I’m already supposedly connected to a few others already.

      I think I’m going to go ahead and abandon #Manyverse / #SSB Secure Scuttlebutt.

      Multiple month-long or longer outages of the pub servers that are necessary if you’re not in the same LAN with other users means that the network is unreliable. There is zero chance that anyone I know in person would return after such long outages, so it is not ready.

      Likewise, I’ve pretty much abandoned #Jami (or #Ring, if you used it previously) because all my contacts dumped it years back when an update forced everyone to re-add their contacts.

      I did download #Briar at one point, but never got any contacts to try it with me, so I never got to use it.

      it was designed by a guy that lives on a boat right? I think Manyverse might well make sense for that situation.

      @bobjonkman Yes, I haven't even gotten to building up much of a contact list, because even when it is working, discoverability is poor.

      It is bedtime here in #SoCal, but I'll try to connect on #SSB / #Manyverse tomorrow.

      And I can't figure out how to connect to a particular server. The #Patchwork #SSB client I'm using has a "+ Join Server" field, but it requires an invitation code. Which I can't generate unless I have a pub server. Which I can't join until I have an invitation code... Sigh.

      #SSB: Concept: A+ ; Implementation: C+ ; Usability: F

      You'd think a communications platform would make it easier to connect to people you want to communicate with...
