how it feels using a smartphone in 2026

developers working on cool p2p stuff, the new 0.97.0 update for @n0iroh@mastodon.social is now out and resolves all of the latest connectivity issues i was having with the library. the custom transport stuff looks mad too.

japanese users who use senbei to convey the size of a purchased item in their shopping site reviews keep me going..

that new smackos record absolutely smacks. quickest buy ever.

he’s the best to ever do it. i don’t care who else you throw at me. if you don’t say it’s danny, i don’t wanna talk.

I haven't written any p2p related code in about 7 years or so, but I decided to try and make something using @n0iroh@mastodon.social for the first time on a whim, and was left incredibly impressed by how quickly I had two peers between berlin and tokyo connected together, swapping data with each other. i think i'd like to start making something useful with it.

i'm also excited to see what eventually comes of the iroh-willow implementation, but for now iroh-docs seems to work well.

been noticing more and more pre-order releases on my bandcamp feed lately. does doing rollouts and pre-orders actually result in more sales? i’ve never pre-ordered anything before, so i’m wondering how many releases i passed on purchasing the first time i saw them because they were just a pre-order.

definitely a fan of folks who drop their stuff immediately rather than “roll it out”.

maybe just me though?

anyone have recommendations for alternatives to raspberry pi zero 2 w? i'm enjoying developing for it at the moment, but i hear spec wise, there might be better options.

something with at least 512mb, wifi, bluetooth, and bonus points for anything with good out of the box arch or alpine support (the rpi zero 2 w doesn't support arch so well, so i have to use the official headless rpi OS).

i bought a new one for 4300¥, so anything around that price point and roughly the same size would be nice.

genuine question for anyone building p2p apps/libraries: how are you testing networking and sync code under real world conditions?

like, not two instances on the same machine, but actual different networks, latency, etc. spinning up a droplet/vps? something else entirely?

testing stuff that has a gui and isn't headless also kind of complicates things too..

最近の創作環境ってちょっとバラバラなんだけどPacmanかわいいね

anyone with experiencing developing for the raspberry pi zero 2 +?
