[$] Sharing stories on Scuttlebutt

Not many people live on sailboats. Things may be better these days, but back in 2014 sailboat dwellers had to contend with lag-prone, intermittent, low-bandwidth internet connections. Dominic Tarr decided to fix the problem of keeping up with his friends by developing a delay-tolerant, fully distributed social-media protocol called Scuttlebutt. Nearly twelve years later, the protocol has gained a number of users who have their own, non-sailboat-related reasons to prefer a censorship-resistant, offline-first social-media system.
