I'm very excited as I'm enabling @FIPS in all my services... image My client. My relay. My blossom server. My repos. My @npub12237...98qn  And then I will be very excited to get rid of legacy and I might add, icky permissioned tech. No more buying domain names. No more laantungir.com/net/org.  No more fixed IP address. My IP addresses will flow like water, as I move my software: -- From one computer host to another. -- From one jurisdiction to another. But all the while, your connection to me will remain uninterrupted. You can always reach me at my npub. One day we will get rid of IP addresses altogether. Just like IP addresses used to ride on top of phone numbers in a dial up connection, and then inverted to where phone numbers now ride on ip - we can likewise invert the npub - ip layers. Yes, you moved from X to Nostr, but this is the next level for the "Ride or Dies" (TM @ODELL ) Who else will be there in this new mesh network called FIPS, as we build a new home for ourselves? Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the most sovereign of them all? View live event →

Who is building the physical network for FIPS and will it have enough performance for all the usual heavyweight applications? Is the Zen of Reticulum the better philosophy for the self sovereign network? Probably, we don't know until we start building and using.

"Enabling nostr on your services, how quaint. Still feeding the beast, I see. Klaus Schwab would be proud."
It should have performance close to or equal to clearnet speeds, given its link independent, you can connect long distances with FIPS using fiber if you want. The only possible bottleneck over large bandwidth links is the nodes CPU due to the encryption process.

wow this sounds like quiet the plunge! congrats
Brilliant! I will soon be running it too, and might help with the near term priorities and roadmap in general.
