What a bargain! /s
@OTheB That is pretty annoying!
I would just like to say though - packaging software for linux IS hard! I don't know if you've done it before - but trying to get a .deb into a launchpad PPA, for example, is stupidly overly complicated. Packaging into a snap or a flatpak and publishing your app is way easier, as a developer, in my experience.
And that's not even talking about sandboxing etc.

Welcome to the club. There's no going back once you've seen the light 😁
@RealityFabric
Yep, should be!
@RealityFabric
Yeah, that'll happen! Heheh. In terms of tracking, you can inspect the code on GitHub and you can see that no tracking tags are loaded if you inspect network.
@preslavrachev There are some things that, as far as I'm aware, can't be achieved without using aggregations.
For example, getting a random sample from a table - https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/sample/
@edwardloveall It sure is! The cool thing about dat is that the user doens't need to know anything about the underlying magic - whole distributed applications can be built on top of the protocol that "just work".
Here's something I've been working on the past few weeks:
dcp - remote file copy, powered by the Dat protocol
https://github.com/tom-james-watson/dat-cp
Think of it as a replacement for rsync/scp that doesn't require you to have an SSH connection between the two machines.

@rasf Welcome! Wha kind of stuff do you normally develop?
@devthedevel yes indeed!
@devthedevel Yeah I believe that any instances that are connected to this one will show in hashtag searches, and viceversa.
@victorbjelkholm The source is here along with a readme - https://github.com/tom-james-watson/p2p.chat
Readme could definitely be expanded on, though!
@bkool Meh, Opera is still closed-source and owned by secretive Chinese billionaires.
I recently put together a P2P video conferencing app using WebRTC swarms.
I'd love if people could check it out and give some feedback.
I've been checking gun out a bit more and am now pretty sceptical.
Looks like a lot of hype and poor quality code (seriously - it looks like auto-formatted minified code https://github.com/amark/gun/blob/master/gun.js).
The examples on the homepage don't even work.
Does anyone have any experience with https://github.com/amark/gun ?
It looks pretty exciting and I'd love to play around with it. What are your thoughts?

@evgeni Oh and I see you're self-learning to code - that's cool.
I've got plenty of experience with Python if you need any help with that :)
