Isn't this akin to the PGP web of trust concept?
I particularly like the concept of purging everyone in a compromised branch by pruning the tree at the compromised node.
I think a web of trust is a much more powerful concept. Users should be able to choose how they distribute and delegate trust.
The tree invite thing is what private torrent trackers have been doing for a long time.
I think this is an excellent idea, alas I don't know anyone from lobste.rs and I just cannot be bothered with going on IRC in 2026, so I guess I don't get an invite
IRC still awesome, even in 2026. It’ll be awesome in 2056 too.
I'll have to take your word for it. I can't be bothered setting up quassel.
