Buzz by Block

“it was way too complicated with Nostr and a bunch of things that are way too much for what I intend to use it for”

“they also fucked up by trying to leverage Gmail into Google Buzz”

“for one person an 5 bots having a full-ass postgres+redis+s3 setup seems completely bonkers”

“Buzz is decent for this use case, but hasn't fully nailed the mark.”

“I like everything about Buzz except for that.”

“Buzz might be interesting for you”

“I also really love Buzz's vision for team collaboration with many humans and many bots”

“Here's the perfect example of the power of Buzz”

“Buzz sounds more interesting to me as someone who was into Sandstorm”

“Buzz looks like a more reasonable direction than this does.”

“I miss Google+ (and even more Google Buzz that came before it, and FriendFeed before that).”

“I had a cohort of friends from grad school that used Buzz like crazy.”

“Google Buzz also seemed like a better path for Google to have a "social network"”

“The moat here does seem quite small, though.”

“I think this is a cool attempt to making AI agents part of the team.”

“admire them for thinking differently and trying to build something interesting”

“Does everyone get a bot? If people share one, whose credentials does it use?”

“This is basically the ide of the future if you think about it.”

“I also am curious whether git really needs to be a dependency here.”

“they 'invented' an auth and permission protocol instead of delegating to something existing”

“Self-hosted stuff looks appealing to me.”

“with this Nostr layer that doesn’t really provide any specific value that I can see”

“Seems easy for Buzz to solve. I'm just happy to have an alternative to Slack.”

“Another problem I see with Buzz is that the tool doesn't seem to be taking advantage of its vertical integration”

“I'm trying to imagine a world in which this makes sense as a way to organize software development work, but coming up short.”

“being so heavily agent focused but I will out of sheer ambition of a more open stack support anything”

“Excited for "decentralized, self-sovereign, and open source." Indifferent to "groupchat for agents".”

“Interesting idea. Biggest problem is that I do think most companies have a ton of key contributors that find git/code intimidating”

“It's hard to imagine incrementally adopting this.”

“Collaborative agentic work is the future! Excited this is out in the world”

“This looks pretty neat, it looks like the shape of something I want to use.”

“The channel as memory has been a big help on larger features that span multiple engineers and many agent sessions.”

“Buzz seems like the future.”

“I think this is a good way to do dev together with teams and agents going forward.”

“it has a persistent catalogue of media that is independent of debrid and can be used to restore previously deleted media”

“It solves the requirement of jellyfin for having a single file per folder even if the original source had many files in them”

“it's been refactored and improved a lot, so it isn't your average vibecoded project”

“the company that insisted on learning the wrong things from the Google Buzz fiasco”

“follow some tags through fedibuzz relay to populate your feed”

“Google Buzz, in particular, was a fairly well done integration with Google Reader and Google Mail.”
