@Gmaclennan Have you thought ahout ditching hypercore oplogs for replicating at the sqlite storage layer? Merkalize the b tree and have sql as your primiyive and sync the source trees from other writers (still runs into paralell writers issue hut maybe merged can happen more efficiently that way too?
The real truth is I can schrdule more time for art in my free time instead of tv or something. Just gotta get around the hand pain 😅😅😅
With the enshittification of search engines & the boom in craptastic AI word-vomit machines, I'm starting to wonder if we should go back to making old-school public listings of our favorite sites, especially other ones created by actual humans and with actual valid knowledge contained on them?
Or maybe more librarians could catalog the web for us, since they're pretty expert at that kind of thing.
Because the machine-driven systems we've built are just... *bad*.

I'd like to thank Amazon for their decision to start charging for IPv4 addresses on top of their already inflated monthly charges for a small VPS we're running on their infrastructure.
