Multi-writer not working, and still requiring hacking workarounds?

This bothers me.

P2P Reddit ( https://notabug.io/ ) has been doing this for over a 1+ year.

All content there updates in realtime too, fully decentralized. (WebRTC or daisy-chained socket relays)

I did not build NAB, but I work on the underlying P2P protocol that powers it ( https://github.com/amark/gun ) which competes with DAT - but I've always recommended DAT to people because I thought it already had working multi-writer apps on it.

Paul, isn't this already possible? You've shown me demos!




I had a look at https://notabug.io, oh my ... this is a great reminder that full decentralization may not actually be the most desirable thing to pursue.
