If you're looking to use it, check back later. + +Hermes is completely free and open source, although under the copyleft [CNPL]() license. ## FAQ -**Q:** -A +**Q: What is Hermes?** -**Q:** -A +Hermes is a client to allow users to interact with the Scuttlebutt network. Some other clients are [Manyverse](https://manyver.se), [Oasis](https://github.com/fraction/oasis), and [Patchbay](https://github.com/ssbc/patchbay). + +**Q: What is Scuttlebutt?** + +Scuttlebutt (SSB for short) is a P2P, decentralized social network. +There are no servers needed, data is passed directly between users, either over local networks, bluetooth, or using pub servers/rooms. + +It works like any other social network. You can follow people, like their posts, and share messages. +It even supports end-to-end encrypted private messages! + +All posts are stored locally, so you can read, like, and post, even when offline! +Your data will be synced with the rest of the network the next time you go online. + +You can go to the official [site](https://scuttlebutt.nz/about/) to learn more. + +**Q: How inclusive is it?** + +The Hermes client itself is created by a bunch of queer anarchists, and we plan on strictly implementing a code of conduct for anyone participating as well. + +In terms of the SSB network itself, it's much better than most other P2P networks. At least from my network graph, it's mostly filled with accepting left-leaning people. + +**Q: How private is it?** + +Your posts are synced with anyone connecting with you. Messages cannot be deleted (at the moment). +This is a hard problem to properly fix however, since you'd have to trust that every single person with your post deletes the message. +It's the same problem with centralized networks however, you can't fully trust that Twitter or Facebook will fully delete your data from their servers. + +**Q: How is it funded?** + +Currently, we're all working on it for free. We plan on accepting donations through various means however. +We will *never* accept VC funding or anything like that however. This will always be a community anti-capitalist project. +We will also never accept investors, implement paywalls, ads, blockchain shit, or analytics. + +## Features +- Modern and full Scuttlebutt protocol features +- Basic social functionality (posts, reactions, profiles, CWs, private messages, pictures, etc.) +- Full markdown support +- Lightweight & fast +- Mobile support (eg. Pinephone) +- User friendly and easy to use +- Simple Tor & proxy configuration +- Drafts and Bookmarks functionality +- Well documented, easy to contribute too +- Welcoming & accepting community +- Accesibility features, translations, etc. ## Roadmap -- one -- two -- three +*TODO* -## Blog! +## Blog +*TODO* {% for post in collections.posts.pages %} #### {{post.title}}
