Summary of Discussions (as best I can):

Overall, the 22 votes we’ve had on the poll from the community (if you can call it a community?) have clearly shown that:

  • We continue to support content-based addressing. (65/35)
  • We think about formally supporting edits/deletes (60/40)
  • We do not increase the use of cryptography (thworing things like authenticity and identity out the window) (70/30)

And overall the NPS (net promoter score) of “Would I recommend Twtxt to a friend” is a whopping 7/10 (which is crazy! 🤯)

Let’s have our monthly catch up soon™ (1hr) and discuss together. My own take on the direction we should take at this point is as follows:

  • We continue to use hashing for the threading model.
    • We think about changing this to SHA-256 for simplicity.
  • We either adopt @anth@a.9srv.net’s UUID approach or @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Dynamic URL approach.
  • We continue to incrementally/progressively improve things over time as @falsifian@www.falsifian.org suggested.
  • We think about mandating utf-8 as @anth@a.9srv.net suggests which makes things so much easier for everyone.
  • We further discuss the merits/ideas of supporting formal Edit/Delete requests or other ways to better support this in some way.
