oauth is the auth solution the current web deserves…

I would take being forced to code in brainfuck over having to maintain e2e tests that involve oauth. This is a special circle of hell

"The iroh-lan UI is designed for zero-friction, ephemeral networking: no accounts, no central servers, no device lists. Name a network, choose a password, and you’re on a private L3 LAN with anyone who does the same, created out of thin air and gone when you leave."

I'm thoroughly enjoying my breaking 0.9x releases ahead of 1.0 😁
This time: A new relay protocol!
But: This gives me a better handshake 🤝, some future optimization potential 🚀 and removes non-WebSocket code paths 🔥

All about this & what it means for relay compatibility in the release blog post:

This post was super inspiring! Just updated the homepage to call out some of our current use in real stuff. We have the usage, but it's not easy.

As for being rough on the edges, I would love to hear *any* feedback on where we can improve. Hoping to contribute to a more viable P2P LoFi world.

Do you want to know how zero-rtt connections work in TLS and QUIC? Read our blog post about how to use zero-rtt in @iroh.computer

There is also a demo that you can try out to see the difference.

It's been a while, but I've gotten 0.35 versions old yesterday!

Really getting close to becoming an adult 1.0 #rust library, in fact - the next release will be my release candidate.

This release contains metrics collection improvements and some small API tweaks ✌️

I'm now 0.34.1 versions old!
This is a minor release, but it comes with some fun stuff:
We (and many others) have been depending on forks of the rust BLAKE3 crate by @oconnor663.bsky.social.

This is no longer the case with its latest updates 🎉
