fraggle<p>Magicwormhole was created by developer Brian Warner as a response to the overly complex ways people transfer files securely. Introduced in the mid-2010s, it aimed to make file transfers between devices as simple and trustworthy as handing a USB stick to someone next to you.</p><p>At its core, magicwormhole uses a concept called PAKE, or Password Authenticated Key Exchange, which allows two computers to establish a secure, encrypted channel over the internet using a short one-time code. That code acts as both an identifier and a temporary password, ensuring the connection can’t be intercepted or spoofed.</p><p>The project gained popularity in privacy and open source circles for its ease of use and its ability to work across firewalls, NAT, and without user accounts. Unlike most tools, it requires no setup, servers, or third-party cloud services. It simply connects you to the other device, does the job, and vanishes.</p><p>It remains one of the cleanest examples of what simple, privacy-respecting software can look like.</p><p><a href="https://1.6.0.0.8.0.0.b.e.d.0.a.2.ip6.arpa/tags/magicwormhole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MagicWormhole</span></a> <a href="https://1.6.0.0.8.0.0.b.e.d.0.a.2.ip6.arpa/tags/privacytools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PrivacyTools</span></a> <a href="https://1.6.0.0.8.0.0.b.e.d.0.a.2.ip6.arpa/tags/securetransfer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SecureTransfer</span></a> <a href="https://1.6.0.0.8.0.0.b.e.d.0.a.2.ip6.arpa/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://1.6.0.0.8.0.0.b.e.d.0.a.2.ip6.arpa/tags/foss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FOSS</span></a> <a href="https://1.6.0.0.8.0.0.b.e.d.0.a.2.ip6.arpa/tags/encryption" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Encryption</span></a> <a href="https://1.6.0.0.8.0.0.b.e.d.0.a.2.ip6.arpa/tags/linuxtools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxTools</span></a> <a href="https://1.6.0.0.8.0.0.b.e.d.0.a.2.ip6.arpa/tags/techprivacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TechPrivacy</span></a> <a href="https://1.6.0.0.8.0.0.b.e.d.0.a.2.ip6.arpa/tags/nocloudneeded" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoCloudNeeded</span></a> <a href="https://1.6.0.0.8.0.0.b.e.d.0.a.2.ip6.arpa/tags/simpletech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SimpleTech</span></a></p>
meejah<p>I have made a release of "git-withme" which allows peer-to-peer Git usage over <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/magicWormhole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>magicWormhole</span></a> </p><p>This uses short, human-memorable codes to invite peers to collaborate (push, pull, etc) in real-time on a Git repository with no external hosting providers. Creates a temporary bare repository on the host so it feels like GitLab style usage.</p><p>"pip install git-withme" or see the project pages:</p><p><a href="https://git.sr.ht/~meejah/git-withme" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">git.sr.ht/~meejah/git-withme</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://pypi.org/project/git-withme/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">pypi.org/project/git-withme/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>python</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/git" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>git</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/p2p" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>p2p</span></a></p>
meejah<p>I love that there's still some really cool ANSI art being produced, like I remember on the very best BBSes ;)</p><p>For example <a href="https://16colo.rs/pack/impure89/impure89.ans" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">16colo.rs/pack/impure89/impure</span><span class="invisible">89.ans</span></a></p><p>Does anyone take commissions for these sorts of pieces?
