Oddbean new post about login | logout Cool, I will try that, then it's also "multi-device" in an easier way than using sshfs for ~/.local/share/gossip :)
oh yeah, you could also use wireguard and host it on a VPS only accessible over wireguard
i seriously doubt mike's client can cope with two instances writing to the app DB... that stuff will just be in the browser cache if you run a custom instance of coracle or nostrudel
If you run two instances it won't obviously fail right away, but it wasn't designed or tested. I've run single commands while the UI is running though to no ill effect.
this is correct: local state for webapps is stored in the browser, even if you host them locally i don't think this is easier to sync multi-device than eg gossip's local files nostrudel does store its settings in a relay-side 30078 event as well, this gives it automatic synchronization of settings between devices, maybe this is enough for what you want
yeah, this is also one of the big hassles with web apps is the web browser doesn't easily let you connect the app to a local cache relay... you could then also connect that cache to wireguard and use the same cache on your other devices as well to do shared state like this you have to build a separate configuration/cache service
I haven't tried multi device at the same time, yeah I can image that would mess things up. I'm closing gossip on the desktop, then sshfs mounting on a laptop and using that. Now that you mention, I will probably forget to close it on the laptop at some pont and try accessing both at once and get to see what kind of fun that leads to.
