      Peergos is building the next web. by creating a - cryptographically secured, - un-enclosable, - unstoppable, - distributed - emergent, - web scale, - people-cantered - self-contained,

      yet - open as in Open source and Open Build) and - extensible infrastructure for autonomous digital Indy Web Spaces*.

      These spaces can be replicated on all yOur devices, weaving a network of Trust, that is People-centric as opposed to being provider centric.

      The network effect benefits the participants who are their own(ed) providers.

      Peergos allows individuals and communities to control their destiny by being able to control their own(ed) Data.

      Even more importantly, Peergos provides the secure, private infrastructure that allows participants to own the very means of computations , apps and affordances, they rely on: themselves.

      These apps are "Open Constructs".

      They are not only Open Source , modifiable right within Peergos, but created in a form that makes their - reuse, - repurpose - refactor - extend - exapt - adapt a simple task. Easy to emulate, compelling to do. Affordances that are Tinkereable, home brew, designed to be shared and co-evolved. Not just Open source But Open Capabilities.

      People are able to - personalise, - customise, - extend<br /> them to satisfy their own particular needs, improve them to improve their ability to improve their own work(flow) in a way that is ease to share with others, while maintaining control and ownership of their contributions, while inviting others to reuse, repurpose and compose them into their own workflows, ones that they themselves need, or indeed create new ones for themselves and others

      All in the long tail of the Peergos Net as Open Software Constructs built from trust for trust.

      Peergos provides yOu with yOur owned, autonomous, stronghold in the war that is waging at increasing intensity over the means of computations.

      Peergos gives you the benefits of "packaged software" - permanent - private - ownership but doing so over the internet with full provenance and recapitulable history (not just sneaker net) scaling - reach and - speed of spread - for scaling impact.

      just as people working with Nostr envisaged the same.

      Peergos let's you create and control your owned (pseudo) identity. Self Sovereign Identity NOT required to be tied to real identity!

      If Self sovereign Identity is linked to state issued identity, that is simply not self-sovereign!

      Give 1 the ability to share privately information and weave yOur 1's own networks of Trust.

      You do not go to places where apps you would like to use are served from, but all apps come to yOur spaces dedicated to names pursuances and emergent communities of practices, to work on yOur owned information.

      Need only to log in once to authenticate yourselves to your owned account, on any of your devices ever having to log in an app ever again!.

    1. The public keys and usernames are stored in a global append only data structure, with names taken on a first come first served basis. This needs consensus to ensure uniqueness of usernames. This is also where the ipfs node id of the server(s) responsible for synchronising the user's writes is stored.

      first come first served

      corenode interface

      get updateChain

      getUserName by - PublicKeyHash - prefix

    1. identity in Peergos is not tied to any particular serve

      no need to move server with loss of network and even data

      a clear case of a "better spot"

      the dual of a sweat spot

      one that is clearly bellow the threshold of what is required

    1. Access can be revoked at any time

      Access can be revoked at any time whilst maintaining access to anyone else the item is shared with. This is all achieved cryptographically with capabilities and lazy re-encryption.

    1. If you migrate to another server, your links come with you and all pre-existing secret links will continue to work.

      Worth pointing out that when you move a folder to a new location the originally created links remain valid

      and because of content addressing no files need moving or no duplicates are created

      Need to confirm this

    1. pursuit of truth

      philosophy is going meta in our human pursuit to understand and to be understood. Truth is tricky tricky,

      Mind is driven to expand and revels in the adjacent impossible and harnesses ti render adjacent possibles, realities Which is a more accessible form of love, responsibility to dream, aiming to maximizing one's engagement in labour of love and maximising the time that one can devote to that

    2. we bring new realities into existence. Polanyi recognises that doing mathematics is a less personal process than writing a novel, but he claims that even mathematics has a discovery process which cannot be reduced to rules. Creativity is a process of emergence. But that does not imply that we can create anything we want. Existence operates within constraints.

      cretvity emergence

      not anything we want

    3. But this implies that our choice of axioms is arbitrary

      it does not axioms by their statement are limited to a specific domain

      like geometry

      conservative exwnsion or alterative conceptualizations

    4. experience goes beyond what language can describe

      language can be used to describe

      use my favourite turn of phrase

      it is not a compromise it is a bloody surrender

      awareness of something we may get to name

    5. Except maybe for abstract objects in formal systems

      why abstract just object where it is the complete description or process for their creation has to be complete for it to be available

      computers can be seen as descriptions embodied made ideas brought to life ascending to embodied physicallity

    1. This is the first ever created HyperWiki/Nized Book https://peergos.net/secret/z59vuwzfFDorrRTiasuWPoJP6QmenGbG1qqA9h8vKR3sb4TgaXVhMbT/4161461392#oeiaklMFoUAR?open=true

      This contains the entire text shared in the commons but what is most interesting is the conversations around it that are only available for individuals who are themselves simply by engaging with it become participant readers on the IndyWeb where their engagement is shared and verifiably recorded mutually by the author of the Book and the reader

      This emergent mutual web of symmathetic conversations is what provides a real augmented value to the shared text

      It is annotated and innotated by creator of the IndyWeb with the signiture gl

      this is an instance first demonstration of work in progress as of January 20025

      indy HyperBook

      using seed level affordances of the IndyWeb as an - named - personal first - autonomous - permanent - evergreen - inter - personal - planetery - connected - playing of trust networked niveral hyper document networks

      hyper wiki like organizeed (wikinized) book

      where the book itself is made available on the web freely but is also amenable to be engaged with and host conversations with the readers who form an interest based emergent community and are able to comment, initiate and engage in threaded conversations and interconnect their engagements to their very own presence and work made available through trusted interpersonal connections with others

    2. Workflows in developemnt

      1. ✅ turn the Books content into an Indy Hyper Wiki augmented b additional organizing capabilities through WikiNizer
      2. make it part of a Peergos power interpersonal interest based trust basd micro social network
      3. ✅ Share it on the Web as and IndyHosted page
      4. ready to be annotated by hyptothesis 5 these annotations will have links to additional comments and threaded IndyWeb conversations
      5. ✅ each reader can receive a personally attributable copy of the book in the form of a HyperWiki 7 ✅which they can share under their own IndyWeb name either because they are a fully attributed nodes in the global indynet trust network or are assigned a reader name by somebody who is already an IndyWeb as a Network weaver.
      6. where they can add their own innotations in their own(ed) copy of the wiki itself, which in turn provides the means of bidirectionally linking their contribution with anything on the trusted IndyWeb with full provenance of all engagement preserved by the participants of any exchange

    1. once you have obtained a trustworthy copy of a Peergos client you do not need to trust a server to interact with it.

      what does that entail

    1. a user wants to mirror all their data on another instance, or migrate to another instance.

      capability to mirror all their data locally on another instance or migrate to another instance

    1. Once they have obtained or built a copy they trust, then they need trust only the integrity of TweetNacl cryptography (or our post-quantum upgrade) and the Tor architecture.

      need to trust the encryption and the Tor architecture

    1. You can run peergos from your own home or server

      to obtain as much storage and bandwidth as you need, whilst still transparently interacting with anyone using any other server

    1. you could start out by creating an account on your device which gives you limited storage and uptime, then effortlessly migrate to a paid server, or to your own server, when you realise how awesome Peergos is.

      own server

    1. use the http p2p proxy exposed locally on the ipfs gateway. It means we can send any request to http://localhost:8080/p2p/$target_node_id/http/$path

    1. The web interface can be accessed from a public server over https or from your machine if you run Peergos locally.

      same for the IndyWeb

      location independence!

    1. Because the server only ever sees encrypted data you can also tell it to directly store your data in a standard cloud storage provider like Backblaze or Amazon

      .query - or IPFS?

    1. Migration Your identity in Peergos is not tied to any particular server. Compared to other federated social networks where moving server typically involves losing your social network and meta-data, if not data too, Peergos allows you to transparently migrate between servers and storage providers without any action required from your friends and without any data loss. This means, for example, you could start out by creating an account on our demo server which gives you a small amount of storage, then effortlessly migrate to a paid server, or to your own server when you realise how awesome Peergos is.

    2. Secret links A secret link can be generated to point to any file or folder. Anyone with a (Javascript enabled) web browser can view such a link. This is a capability based link which includes the necessary key in the hash fragment of the url. A secret link doesn't expose the file to the network, or indeed to anyone who doesn't have the link itself because the key material isn't sent to the server.
