"Dialed" into the Mac Studio wirelessly across the room for some IRCing on old hardware, here as the snow falls. ❄️

I had to modify the plist and shell config scripts I'd setup on the Mac since "upgrading" to macOS 26 Tahoe to get this working without gripes in the terminal.

Matt: meow

Aral: Hey FiXato, Matt, welcome :)

Aral: So this is how | see folks running their own Small Web sites in the future, at Web Numbers (IP addresses, really, but less scary) :)

Max: Hello!

Aral: (Only made possible as of this month with Let's Encrypt rolling out support for TLS certs at IP addresses.)

Hellie: Hiya!

Aral: Hey, Max, Hellie, how goes?

oliofl: Hello

Hellie: doing alright, interesting app!

Aral: Of course, this is an example of an old-school centralised site where we're all chatting on the same server but, if you're interested, check out the end-to-end-encrypted Kitten Chat example in the repository for a peer-to-peer version :)

Aral: Thanks, Hellie, the really interesting bit is that we're meeting at an IP address over https ;)

@aral so, what makes #KittenChat a better choice than #IRC ( #WebIRC) or #XMPP+ #OMEMO or #PGP/MIME?

Besides being a #WebApp and easy to setup a server…
