HabrFidoNet: первая свободная сетьНа связи Аеза и сегодня мы хотели бы вспомнить замечательную сеть FidoNet, когда-то объединившую энтузиастов по всему миру. В предыдущей статье мы вспоминали компьютер ZX-Spectrum, историю его создания и вторую жизнь в СССР. В этой статье мы также поговорим о том, как и кем изначально создавалась эта сеть и как затем она развивалась в России. Да, для многих современных айтишников FIDO (Fast IDentity Online) ассоциируется исключительно со стандартами аутентификации. Но в прежние времена, когда над вопросами аутентификации в глобальной сети еще никто даже не задумывался, существовала сеть FidoNet и вот об этом и будет наш сегодняшний рассказ.<a href="https://habr.com/ru/companies/aeza/articles/917136/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://habr.com/ru/companies/aeza/articles/917136/</a><a href="https://zhub.link/tags/fidonet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fidonet</a> <a href="https://zhub.link/tags/%D1%80%D0%B5%D1%82%D1%80%D0%BE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ретро</a> <a href="https://zhub.link/tags/bbs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bbs</a>

vga256new tomo devlog post: how do you deal with shitty people behaviour?<a href="https://tomo.city/#2025-01-22" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://tomo.city/#2025-01-22</a>excerpt:after posting that "Eris-Free Net" wikipedia article the other day, it made me think about how to deal with misbehaving shards on tomoNet, and how governance works on decentralized networks.when i started thinking about creating something like tomo years ago, i often thought about Ultima Online as - not so much a model for - but an example of a network of online communities that was always interesting and sometimes frustrating to deal within-game, for several years, UO really was the "wild west" of online communities - so much was left up to players to figure out. for a long time, there were no game mechanics that enabled players to enact governance of their own (e.g. creating towns, villages, provinces and local laws). the outcome of this was that most often a kind of hillbilly/frontier justice, or outright dog-eat-dog existence, became the norm.this was great for player-killers and people who loved strife. it added some intensity to the game that no other game had, or in my view has ever had since. (WoW/EQ/etc all elected to bolt everything down and render the world in nerf)....BBSes also had governance-by-sysop/god, FidoNet with network coordinators, and USENET with its backbone cabal.tomoNet - a network of tomo shards that agree to all swap groups/posts with one another - is going to have to deal with the question of (self-) governance sooner or later. at the moment, tomoBBS has no specific controls for managing defederation and it does *not* use the ActivityPub protocol. it needs some, and i need help thinking through what the options are, for a network based on NNTP....if you've got thoughts on how your online social community was governed (or failed to be governed) by its users, i'd love to hear about it. it's a wide open topic for debate, and there are no wrong answers at the moment.<a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/tomo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tomo</a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/ultima" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ultima</a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/fidonet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fidonet</a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/bbs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bbs</a>
