I'm still using MPD+ncmpcpp. For remote access, I use Wireguard and stream via HTTP on VLC. It's amazingly fast and lightweight (26MB RAM for 30K+ songs).

MALP also works on Android, might be better with no physical keyboard (now supports streaming also).

A bunch of eDonkey servers were seized in 2006. This was before the implementation of Kademlia in emule. It highlighted the vulnerable centralized part of the protocol and pushed people to alternatives.
Also compared to bittorrent, the lack of moderation and low speed played a role.

pedroapero , to Privacy in Why every TOTP app default uses SHA-1 hash encryption?

The entropy of otp codes is low compared to the seed's. I'd never though about what that meant for reversion. Good point !

pedroapero , to Privacy in The Bitcoiners were wrong: a blog post about privacy and bitcoin, and how they failed to design a cash alternative

In actually decreases with time (by half every four year, unless the value increases equally, which is unlikely in the long run). However you should compare the energy per transaction, which is pretty lame (5txs per seconds or similar).

pedroapero , to Privacy in Any web site that lets you share files with people like xender ?

Sharik is very nice on smartphone: https://f-droid.org/packages/dev.marchello.sharik/
No need to install anything on the receiver side; handles Wifi hotshot itself.

pedroapero , to Open Source in How are companies or developers supposed to make a full time living with OSI opensourced projects?

I would add:

  1. Paid 24/7 support
  2. Pay for custom features
  3. Accept donations

The onion option makes more sense (standard solution, battle-tested). Not sure about POW resilience, compared to distributed hosting though.

Yep, you can gossip the list of peers with that identifier.

IPFS has 2 and 3 (they almost f*ed-up 3 with CID v1 actually)

This would be the identifier: rad:z3SNcAzHydhWtfaFTiq9S643GQjYU

pedroapero , (edited ) to Open Source in Ideas for a federated anime tracker

I had a try ad Bookwyrm, which seems similar to what you intend to build. I was disappointed because the database itself is federated, meaning it's full of duplicated entries.

I wish they chose IPFS instead of Bittorrent v1.
