Discovering this, I'm curious what other blockchains already provide for on-chain mail. I don't know how to find that. Having an onchain mail protocol is half the battle. The second half is appropriate tools for POP/IMAP/SMTP/client relaying and protocol diagnostics. Arweave is great, but two things do irritate me about it that are obvious poor compromises: - It distinguishes between nodes and edge devices. - It claims it is the first blockchain to do on-chain storage and websites. Still, moving from gmail to weavemail is likely to be like moving from a horse-drawn wagon to a tank. https://weavemail.app/ Weavemail No file chosen Drop a keyfile to login. Weavemail is mail that Google cannot read. Mail that cannot be censored. Mail that cannot be lost. Weavemail is mail that you own. GET A WALLET WITH SOME TOKENS.
[thread:spam] like usual it is just a tiny messaging app with no email norms. i fervently posted before knowing what it was, reversing proper orders of behavior, again!

You mean cleartext mail :) But yeah I think people would want this for public mailing lists. Man I've been _really_ out of it. I found arweave has a python client library. The implementation looks a little funny. I imagine people writing code using some automated system that has learned to write in a way that lets it be quickly rewritten better. Of course the human brain is such a system. Still the lack of DRY etc in some modern code is confounding.

any kind of 'blockchain' mail or anything 'blockchain' in general. 99% of 'blockchains' are for surveillance and worse.

what kind of blockchains have you run into? i was a little confused when i posted the main thing, but basically it's possible to configure a blockchain (via software development) to meet personal requirements of various cryptographic bounds, including anonymity and privacy. that doesn't mean that anybody _does_ that. it's kinda like money, it makes it work super well and then somebody paves over your garden and murders your family
