Sam, Scuttlebutt looks very interesting. I saw the video and getting started, didn't use it yet.
I can think of two use cases: We can store the .ssb folder on FreedomBox allowing users to access the social network from multiple devices. I hope at least one of the scuttlebutt clients supports this use case. Users would access their Scuttlebutt instance running on FreedomBox from a browser. I'm not sure if multiple users can be supported on one FreedomBox in this use case. A second use case is to run a scuttlebutt pub on the FreedomBox providing a setting to make it either private or public with people storing their data on their own devices. Either way, the chief blocker (and also the best feature) to adding a new application to FreedomBox is the requirement that the application be a Debian package. Once scuttlebutt is packaged for Debian, we can consider adding it to FreedomBox. BTW, since we're talking about social networks, the Debian packaging for GNU Social and diaspora* is in progress. I hope we'll have them both integrated into FreedomBox this year.
