cat != kitty; // 🐈 🐈‍⬛ - can't you see the difference?..

@JSKitty said it was a cat, but his username says he is a kitty... Its confusing

Catsie :)

They share the same leaf node. The cool part is totally opt-in, you can keep using the manual multi-leaf-node approach that the RFC provides, or use this one, which is basically a mesh sync using Blos...

How did you handle the fact that each leaf node has a ratcheting key? If I remember MLS correctly each leaf node has a ratchet but its not strict, the application messages can come out of order. But I remember having an issue with two clients sharing state because they didn't want to send two application messages on the same leaf node ratchet index...

All very confusing stuff, but I'm interested how you guys got multiple clients to share the same state without fighting each other

Good question. There are actually two ratchets in MLS and we handle them differently. For application messages, we don't coordinate generation picks across devices. We let them race. The delivery stream carries the generation in the clear, so when one device sends at gen N, the other sees it and ad...

where is astral.ninja now?.. >.<

The source code still exists, but its not running anymore https://github.com/monlovesmango/astral

It's a clone of a UI a lot of people on the Fediverse are very attached to. To hopefully lower the switch cost.

Interesting, although I don't see much difference.It's cool that themes work though, those are starting to become standard :)

It's like the Fediverse but all the data is portable and the client connects directly to multiple servers. Maybe I'll add an Ethereum wallet tomorrow.

hzrd149 @hzrd149 1784218277

It feels just like a fork of ditto, what makes this different besides the theme and layout?

Is it just a cat, or is it a JavaScript cat?

This reminds me of the now by gone era of coding before ai. When it was a puzzle. I once made a css ui out of different sized hexagons, it was a similar experience.

hzrd149 @hzrd149 1784217664

The puzzles were fun. Back then I also built a bunch of custom css 3d animations

Awesome. how did you manage the MLS states? does each device get its own leaf node or are they sharing the same leaf node ( keys )?

Made a mistake, the path that makes the triangles is "M2 4h4v4Zm0-2v6h6Z"... Its been too long since I wrote SVG and I think I forgot how to read it :)

@hzrd149 1784216336

In case anyone is wondering what my avatar is, its the smallest most interesting SVG shape I could hand code back when astral.ninja was the main nostr client.

When I joined nostr it was out of curiosity, so naturally I wanted to test what would break if I set my profile image to a data URI. but at the time astral.ninja limited the "picture" field to maximum length of 256 which meant that if I was going to build a data URI that would fit I would only be able to do SVG and probably only have a single <path> element.

This is the SVG I ended up writing:
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 10 10"><path fill="#fff" d="M0 0h10v10H0z"/><path d="M2 4h4v4Zm0-2v6h6Z"/></svg>

The main path "M0 0h10v10H0z" takes advantage of the fact that the fill area on paths inverts when it crosses itself. which allowed me to make the white space in the middle.

So in total this SVG encoded to a data URI has a length of 206, just enough to fit into the "picture" field in astral.ninja, although as you would imagine It didn't work so I went back to a PNG profile picture :D
