This might just get me back to Firefox:

"Mozilla has always been a proponent of #decentralization, recognizing that it is a key ingredient of a healthy Internet. Starting with Firefox 59, several protocols that support decentralized architectures are available for use by extensions. The newly approved protocols are:

Dat Project (dat://)
IPFS (dweb:// ipfs:// ipns://)
Secure Scuttlebutt (ssb://)"

Slightly off:
I'm curious about #Beaker
why are they building a new browser instead of extending an existing one?
Their browser is, quite honestly, absolutely horrible.
It also doesn't support any of the addons I rely on.
Couldn't they have added #dat support to #Firefox with WebExtensions? Or just fork Firefox like #TorBrowser did?

Hi there! I'm Maslow, I work in software/electrical engineering on satellites and am a bisexual lady.

I'm really interested in #dat, #ipfs, #ssb, #meshnetworks, #socialjustice, and #privacy.

I love my big, floofy dog, and currently live in Washington, DC.

Okay, I'm done clogging your timelines with my nerdshit.

Let me know what you think! Am I overlooking something? Is there a reason this won't work?

Aside from dat's current implementation being written in Node.js, and the lack of ios/android clients, this all looks like a pretty good idea to me.

Hey Friends,

I am sooooo happy 😺 today I managed to craft a little add-on for Firefox using the Native Messaging API and talk to #Scuttlebot bundled as a native app. This means that I can now add support for #scuttlebutt decentralized network to Firefox by creating WebExtensions similar to patchlite and git-ssb.

Using this approach, I can also add support for #dat and have Firefox be able to interact with dat resources. This might be soooo cool
