Tenfingers sharing protocol

To test out the tenfingers protocol in a real world use case, I made a small html/js entrypoint for tenfingers (.10f) files.

Security is of course a concern with downloading things inside a javascript on a web page, so there are restrictions on how it can be used.

If you want to try it out, and give some feedback I'd be quite happy!

To do so:

Go to this link where you can download the html & js code (3 files) and a tenfingers test link.

Put them all in a temporary folder, and open the download.html file in your favorite browser, from there you can 'load' the 10f file.

The code is slow, does not give much details of what's happening (hit F12 and check the 'console' tab (Firefox, other browsers might vary) or just check CPU usage (decryption is slow) so please be patient.

And please please report back, especially if something or nothing seems to work!

Cheers & thanks!

Thanks, I edited in a quick link and the dumbass is me not you!

No no no....I tracked you down. LOL No harm no foul. So, this is some kind of P2P or maybe filesharing like Funkwhale? I gotcha bookmarked for now to read this evening.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Sort of P2P, it's a sharing system based on reciprocal sharing (I share yours because you share mine), add sharing the same data several times and you get robustness.

A sort of decentralised file system.

Please let me know what you think about it all.

PS. Funkwhale seems interesting, gotta check that out, thanks!

Hmm, sounds interesting. Any interesting/notable differences that set this project apart from other similar projects like IPFS?

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

One main difference with IPFS is that you can change the shared data without having to re-distribute a new link. It's also based on reciprocal sharing instead of benevolent sharing, which means that if someone shares then it grows the sharing capability of the network instead of using it up.

I have made some comparatifs, you are all welcome posting any questions you have here or there ofc. ☺️ !
