Seems some people are making a clone of Discord, but FOSS. They also seem to be behind GitGud and Mixtape. I saw a familiar name, Odilitime (works on Endchan?). Seems like a good project.

Being behind GitGud isn't really that impressive; it's just a GitLab deployment. I do like Sapphire a lot, though. That said, do we really need another group chat platform? There are literally hundreds of these fucking things, and very few of them bring much more than a few flashy but useless features over plain IRC, or even XMPP. I guess their goal here is to have a centralized platform to integrate all their services, but you could already do that with most of the existing solutions. I don't see the advantage of writing yet another platform from scratch compared to extending an existing solution.

I also find it really disconcerting that they're announcing a brand new web chat app, and going into details on its capabilities, but have no open information on the protocol. They should be jumping in, writing up the API and making sure it's sane and useable and sufficient before they even start mocking up application prototypes. The fact that they're writing up an implementation before solidifying the API implies that they're more focused on the appearance of the app and replicating Discord's appearance and features than actually building a safe and sane foundation that will outlive this specific web-app and is very open to community development. I could be wrong, though. I don't know what their architecture looks like, and it is admittedly in a beta stage.

And what is with this stupid fucking naming trend of just taking a fucking word and removing the vowels from the latter half of the word? It's everywhere and it's fucking stupid. Just call it Tavern. It's not cool or trendy to leave vowels out.

The main issue is that Discord has gone full Jew, and time is running out for people to migrate to a safe haven.

Matrix is a good solution, but most consider the UI to be crap, and the E2E to be too complex. Rocketchat is what the furries are using currently, and they are doing very well.

 No.902166

Why not build over IRC using IRC itself?

Put this in gecos: IRC+1

Then make a client that can send and understand commands to improved clients, like:

PRIVMSG ircplususer :/irc+1:receive-history irc.freenode.net:##programming 147985111526

The receiving user checks whether they were logged on during that time and were in that channel, and if so sends the best possible message history it can. The sending client receives the history, and tries to piece it together from all users in the room, like a P2P swarm. The user should be able to choose whether they want to share room history or not.

For long messages, you can insert something like irc+1:more at the end of each non-complete message, and the client could piece it together.

The only issues are excess flood, and the tiny send/recv buffers irc servers allow.

Is it end-to-end encrypted?

Shut up, nigger. This is like if Stallman's new printer firmware was functionally identical down to replicating the instability and lockout.

OP's autists have introduced nothing new or redeeming. They've simply decided to clone a really shitty system because they think it's pretty and they want their own, shitty or not.

They could have contributed to countless existing solutions that protect users with encryption, distribution, etc, but instead they're cloning Discord. You ask why they haven't said anything about the API? Because fuck API, we're here to make pretty purple and grey messages :DDDD

>Riot UI is still shit, and needs improving.

What he said was a matrix client, not something for Riot. Riot's just a matrix client, it isn't matrix itself; he's talking about making a replacement for the Riot frontend that looks better and has more features, instead of making an entirely new protocol. And Riot's UI is fine, I don't see what the problem with it is. The biggest issue Riot has, in my experience with it, is that E2E encryption is a buggy, barely usable mess.

What specifically do you and the other people complaining about it think is wrong with the UI?

Just saw the post, thanks for discussing.

Tavrn because as all website turn into a realtime chat with video we want a better UI/UX. And we want our privacy respected, we're a user-supported OSS company, that means we're beholden to our users, if they don't like what we'e doing, we don't get back and we can't continue. No real name is required for the Sapphire account, just an email. And we stand on our good track record of the last 3-4 years of being open, transparent and communicative.

License is MIT, made it explicit on the gitgud repos.

We are using an open standard that App.net poured millions of dollars into planning and creating. Pnut.io is another provider using the same standard like Tavrn. Search github for all sorts of app.net clients (probably over 20 or so). App.net (ADN) documentation is available on our github repo: https://github.com/Sapphio/sapphire-platform-docs but you got to build/host it yourself. We currently do not support 3rd party clients. We also used the standard oauth2 protocol for identification.

Tavrn is not going to be decentralized, federated or E2E encryption (though everything can be run over SSL).

The server has no been optimized yet, most of the work has been to get code working to the spec. Running a cluster of 8, uses about 768mb of ram and can support roughly 700 people. Likely will replace nodejs with exilir or golang in the future. You can already see the web socket connecter is in golang

Since there are various client, including Beta and command line, client ram usage varie widely.

We do have a ton of bridges, including discord, irc, twitch and many more like matrix coming (pnut dude already has an oss matrix <-> adn bridge, we just need to set it up). Connecting a ton of platforms into Tavrn is a goal of ours.

Tavrn is not mastodon based nor ever will be. However, we have a custom Mastodon server that we wrote in nodejs (will likely convert to golang or exilir in the future) that handle Mastodon clients (think mobile apps) and converts ADN into mastodon structures. This require none of the broken standards mastodon uses or any of their crappy code. Also have an irc server that lets irc client connect to our backend.

Tavrn names was chosen by user poll. Tavern with an E had no available good domain names we liked.

Tavrn is mostly written from scratch. Leveraging the existing app.net eco-system to get started but a lot of that has been now replaced. Our code quality is bad. We know it. But it's secure enough for our current level.

Endchan, where I'm an admin (not owner), is not a part of Sapphire. I also help various other imageboards including 8ch, mewch, and a bunch of smaller ones.

Any other questions?

Better UI/UX, better policies, and better company. Surely we won't be for everyone.

>Is the decision on Go/Elixir not made yet or is it a matter of which dev bites the bullet? I'd imagine the languages should be equally suited

No, it's not depending on the dev. Erlang (which exilir compiles too) isn't great for REST APIs, however it's great for chatrooms (think nodejs io handling on steroids) but projects like pleroma has had good success with using it for REST.

Erlang should be able to beat out golang hands down in IO processing. However golang/gin have very efficient webstacks. So it's a matter of the cost of REST API on erlang vs the inefficiency of golang's IO.

Also Erlang is much harder to code in. Exilir should make it a easier but how much is to be seen.

no it can't. This is why WhatsApp is worth 16 instagrams; their erlang tech and talent. Erlang runs a multi-machine VM, node has nothing like this. (Clustering is limited to single-image and openmosix died years ago). This means to scale a erlang add, you just add more hardware, no code changes needed (as far I understand it, I maybe be simplifying things here)

>>903247

Every single cent of donations is used on operational costs. We currently aren't paying members. The idea is to release some premium services that would fill the labor gap.

But none of the alternatives ever catch on. GNU/Linux is the only one I can think of and even then it's a special case since an open source operating system is much better to use on something like a server than a closed source one

A good 90% of the time, being open source isn't enough of a selling point for the people who would theoretically be using your product since they can't code, don't understand code, and most of the time don't care what's in that code as long as it doesn't affect the software's usability.

Tavrn Tap won't replace Discord because most people will see it as "Discord but without all of my friends on it", and will move on. Even a lot the people who do know the difference will end up getting dragged back to Discord because, again, all of their friends are on Discord

Just look at Skype.

There's a difference here though. Discord was, and is, functionally distinct from Skype. Tavrn doesn't do enough different to make it stand out

Also, I never said I liked Discord

it is? they both look like webshit that crashes every minute and collects unnecessary amounts of information to me. and they both support voice and groups.

Gee, it's like they cover the same use cases.

Only difference is you can pay on Skype to phone someone. But why do that if you can just "WhatsApp" 'em.

Are you going to support ActivityPub or Matrix federation on Tavrn and Tap respectively?

If bot, what keeps this from being just as shitty as Discord if it is ultimately a centralized service as well? If it can't bridge to anything else, how does it grow a userbase with no tangible benefits beyond your word that you've made no changes to the free and open source server and client software? Do you implement libre.js?

Bridging and federation are not the same thing. Odilitime has expressed an interest in bridging to Matrix but not full support for federated features, including Matrix 3PID and Identity Services, federation allowing for users of other Matrix services to connect to rooms without a user account on Tavrn Tap and users of Tavrn to join non-Tavrn Matrix rooms, syncing room states, E2E between users of the respective services, video and audio calling between users of different servers, and a lot more enabled by full support for the Matrix Client-Server, Server-Server, and Identity APIs.

A bridge just means a bot can connect rooms from each service without respect to the standards; the question is whether Tavrn will support the full Matrix and oStatus/ActivityPub standard, or in practice only have hacked together "support" to talk to things that do.

Also, from what I can gather odilitime has a hard time separating oStatus and ActivityPub as protocols from the service Mastodon while (poorly) implements them and without regard to other services like GNUsocial and Pleroma which implement them as well. Getting an answer that appraises the protocols and his intent to support them, and not just Eugen Rochko's shit implementations thereof, could certainly help other users decide whether to take him seriously and call him out for being full of shit.

It's a shit thread for a shit idea but if Odilitime steps up and offers a damn good explanation why he's snubbing Matrix, it might make things a bit less shit.

As it stands now, it's shit for the following:

1. It's buggy, the private chanenl button would often get stuck. sometimes it just wouldn't load, sometimes it would refuse to upload.

Note: All of these were fixed with a F5 but it's fucking annoying

2. I can not figure out how to order channels, I'm trying to clone my Discord yet I literally can't.

This beta a shit.

I don't think you guys know what I mean, and it's entirely my fault, because I'm really fucking bad with words

What I meant was that normies could clearly tell the difference between skype and discord, which isn't the case for tavrn tap.

We can tell the difference because we're smart, but some mouth-breathing highschool kid? Hell no! He'll take one glace at it, decide that it's just discord with a different name, and stop using it before he really gets into it, which is only if he decides to try it in the first place, which isn't very likely

I call it the 8chan effect. 8chan is very similar to 4chan on a surface level, but when you spend enough time on it you'll see that 8chan is a much better website with a better user interface and more features. Normies won't be willing to use 8chan long enough to see its qualities, will write it off as a less popular 4chan, and will leave before they get the chance to truly appreciate the site

It's the same with many imageboards. Many others just simply die because that kind of effect is so large it can't build a userbase.

Well Gab.ai knows this and they made themselves different from Twitter.

Same with Aminoapps and Discord/Reddit/Voat.
