I've set myself up on
<a href="https://www.scuttlebutt.nz/">Scuttlebutt</a> a
decentralised social network. I heard about it as an off-grid
Facebook alternative from
<a
href="https://softwareengineeringdaily.com/2017/05/26/off-grid-social-network-with-andre-staltz/"
>this Software Engineering Daily podcast</a
>.
</p>
<p>
If you'd like to connect with me on Scuttlebug I'm
<code>@jnA0/zkHb0TYLheAhmzNxK6MlOWqHlsk+xxMdy/pRDY=.ed25519</code>
</p>
<p>Here's how I set it up on Windows 10:</p>
<ol>
<li>
Download the windows installer from the
<a href="https://github.com/ssbc/patchwork/releases"
>GitHub repo</a
>. I got version 3.6.6
</li>
<li>
Install on a Windows 10 machine. I allowed the network access
through the firewall when asked
</li>
<li>I set up my profile and published</li>
<li>
Not really knowing how things worked I randomly picked
http://ssb.rootsystems.nz/ to ask for an invite code
</li>
<li>
I chose "Join Pub" in patchwork and pasted in my invite code
</li>
<li>
That joined just fine and lots of channels started appearing
</li>
<li>I subscribed to the #new-people channel</li>
<li>It took a while for all the messages to download</li>
<li>
While waiting for the messages to download I also subscribed to
the #python channel
</li>
<li>
After about 5 minutes I was up and running and could post to the
network
</li>
</ol>
