Great. Thank you! Can I choose to sync just the new content since I joined? Or since let's say June 2017? And can I clear the previous content synced on my device? If nothing then, let's say, for need for free disk space. Also, I have installed the Manyverse app on my Android phone (hoping it would not be as resource intensive as Patchwork) - but shall I have do everything all over again if I ever to go for a desktop app or any other app on any device (as it seems from other comments in this post) - every invite being added again and so on? (Edit) And Manyverse is another decentralised app that is using ScuttleButt protocol, right? And the Android app is a way to access "just this app/social network" on the SSB network - or not on a network really since it's P2P. Did I get it right? I have watched the video and it made things a lot clearer and the heartbreaking story was touching :) But now I think Manyverse might just be a "pub" on SSB :) |

at the moment no, but it's likely we'll move content off-chain (%QJEpN8LN1t3BrIkUQ3WoOMWRsMArbVUZCpTeBYcuqfw=.sha256) so you would only need to sync the signature chain metadata, then could choose what content you want to download or delete.

Manyverse is a mobile app on SSB, much like Patchwork is a desktop app. it uses all the same peer-to-peer network, including the existing pubs (as in there are no pubs specific to Manyverse).

if you want to use both Manyverse and Patchwork, yes they will be separate keys each with their own feed, to be merged as the same conceptual identity, see this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18067100.
