It has been like pulling my own teeth, but with help from Mark of I have a + app in which:
- App JS and Rust can both access a browser filesystem (wasmFS.fs)
- JS can call Rust
- Rust can call JS

Now to figure out parameters and returns!

What's clear from the reaction to this most recent privacy policy change is that WhatsApp shares much more information with Facebook than many users were aware, and has been doing it since 2016. eff.org/deeplinks/2021/01/its-

So signal is having technical difficulties due to user influx. Signal didn't want to decentralize because it wanted to be able to continue to provide a reliable exoerience. Yet here they are unable to provide a reliable experience BECAUSE they are centralized.

Hello World! This is the first actual social network I've registered for, having had no interest in the "mainstream" centralized ones. My interests are programming (mainly Python), Linux, FOSS, and guitar.

Some of the most creative talent cannot be bought.

What's limiting creativity then, is not money but the need to support basic needs by working for those with money.

@lrvick nice thread Lance. I agree and bang on about this all the time.

It feels a bit lonely "out there" but there are many who do get this as well. If you've not done so yet, check out safenetwork.tech which has a great community, and I think ground breaking privacy tech. It's where I put most of my effort in this topic.

Any single entity that thinks they can protect a huge pile of valuable data forever is as naive as I once was.

We must stop taking the easy road or picking things based only on their UX.

Learn to use decentralized systems and teach others or the free internet won't survive.

Headed back down the rabbit hole today.

This stuff looks good! Example: using it is trivial to compile to Rust and then have a file than you can run on the command line on different OS!

Now trying to get this all working in a browser 🙂
