I need recommendations for a peer-to-peer architecture. I want to build a private social app, not reinvent P2P infrastructure.
I wrote about the app’s use case considerations. Please comment if you have knowledge, suggestions, or anything helpful!

@restoration.software there are so many p2p toolkits now: https://sockets.sh @pears_p2p @pzp #nostr @p2panda https://willowprotocol.org etc.

@lutindiscret @restoration.software Given the outlined constraints I think @VeilidNetwork would be a great foundation to build on. Combined with a local database and a protocol to send messages between specific peers. Do you care about people being able to load a persons data when the person is offline?
@mauve @lutindiscret @restoration.software @VeilidNetwork Thanks for the suggestion! My full evaluation of options against my use case requirements is now posted at https://restoration.software/posts/adr-1/
Veilid very much impressed me. It seems to have solved the connectivity part well, but leaves data sync and access control up to apps to figure out. Willow does that stuff exceptionally well, but not connectivity. I am curious if the 2 could complement each other.
