    Also you say it's the first but doesn't lobste.rs work this way, without the gratuitous blockchain?

    Love the idea.

    How well do you think this scales?

    So how do I get invited?
    • Chirpper 2 hours ago
      If you go through the homepage, and create a pre-invite account (which is like two button clicks or so) you'll end up on a status page.

      This is the cold - no invite path. Where I'll personally verify you're human and attach your cold account to an invite :)

      Otherwise, you'd have to be invited.

        So my best interest would be to spam a lot of accounts now that'll be personally trusted by you and reflect poorly on you if I use them for spam later?

          Yes, exactly. I'm most excited that the concept was understood at all. So cool. Thank you.

    Oh nice idea. How do you start to get on?

      Make it to the status page - through the homepage, and chat with me - and I'll add you to my TrustChain.

      Okay, so I got an internal server error when I tried to check my status with my codes.

        Hmm... checking the logs to see what happened. But you should be able to go to the https://chirpper.com/login page, drop your "key" and be taken to your profile. I've already added all signups from HN to my TrustChain, so you should already be a trusted account.

          Found some janky stuff to do with old versions of the cold start up flow from before I settled on the way it works now. Should be fixed now. Thank you so much for testing it.
