No way man, I was on identi.ca

[–] n7gifmdn@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

was surprised to learn I technically still am, and password recovery even worked after >10 years since previous log in, and I hear rumors the original dev is back and will be releasing integrated support with ActivityPub this summer.

eChirp is a fork of identica, did you read the article?

the original identi.ca devs are all active with the activity pub protocol project.

it was supposed to be humerus.

all I was saying that I've probably been on the 'verse longer than the feds

[–] JoYo@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I upvoted and was just including context.

NSA? Yes. CIA? Probably not. They don't have that kind of imagination. c.f., the internal parody of The Hunt for Red October they declassified about a decade ago.

fair, I think JWICS was for DoD only.

[–] drwho@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't think JWICS is DoD only. In theory, any TLA or FLA that handles TS material, has a SCIF and a local JWICS LAN can't be hooked into the rest of the JWICS network.

I thought NSA had a completely different one called Tapioca. /shrug

[–] drwho@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

It wouldn't surprise me. The definitely have a need for their own entirely separate network.

@JoYo, not only, Lemmy right now

[–] nickapos@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Tor as well...

@JoYo I'm not seeing anything in the article linking #eChirp to the #Fediverse

[–] JoYo@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

it was a fork of identi.ca

[–] fcktheworld587@social.linux.pizza 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

@JoYo absolutely they would be. They gravitate towards fringe gatherings, partially because that's where radicalisation generally occurs

[–] drwho@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

That's DHS.

And then they encourage it to fester so they can claim a larger budget
