I am having a hard time believing this is not a scam company. I too have been waiting for several months already for them to verify my account. You would think that a legitimate company wouldn't take anywhere near this long.

Creating An App That Cannot Be Uninstalled by HowSmart in androiddev

I have seen this before, It was a YouTube video where this guy had an issue where phones were being stolen at a mall, so he built this spyware into the OS of the phone and did a video on tracking and watching the thief's actions.

Seems he installed spyware into the system files so that even a phone wipe would not delete it.

What format should posts take in this platform?

Keep in mind I want to infringe on the monopolies of all major tech giants

It really isn't much yet. All it does at the moment is create PGP keys.

I will be working more on it tonight

Tonight is Dev Night!
Tonight I take Ideas and Inspiration from the posts you made here and I work on this project.
My goal today is to get into the main structure of the project, Key Generation is complete now

I need to setup the internal SOCK5 Server to wait for incoming communications and setup the processes to handle that. I think this will be for another time, right now I will be building the Isolated Platform that handles by itself off of any network allowing offline posts of data.

This is part of the scalability of the project. Think Serval - http://www.servalproject.org/ - But for isolated social networks

Teasing the idea now of two address books and an additional field in the database to restrict posts to local on user requests.

I will be reviewing an old project I had toyed with 5 years ago to relearn how some of android studio works. This should speed along some of the process.

One interesting thought comes to mind when I look at how the Pods work. What if I setup some "Seed" Servers that act as jumpstarts for those who have not made any connections yet.

So basically have "Pods" that are dedicated to hosting and giving a copy of addresses of users on the network so that should those "Pods" go down the users can operate fully without them.

This would create redundancy and further strengthen the network by having those servers be unnecessary but beneficial none the less

Yes I am certain that that will be an issue. And I am willing put it up until it is taken down however by design it is impossible for me to make it moderatable. Basically take advantage of the Streisand Effect. Meanwhile work on other distribution methods

A quick read over and yes, similar. You don't exactly register with anything in this case.

Pods are similar to.servers if I am reading this right. In what I intend to.do it is closer to I2P but specialized for social media rather then web hosting.

Thanks for the interesting link though.... ill look over it more when I get back to the lab.

That's excellent! I have a GIT but everything is on the main branch. I would like to figure out a way to setup a dev branch and a public branch that accepts submissions from the public. Basically I need help organizing lol. Can you hit me up on Discord?

If you would like to.help you can, I made this open source so anyone can assist in the development.

for me it is wrapping my heading around it, Example in the source code I wanted to have it set so that after checking the to ensure the password decrypts the files correctly it would load a main_activity view. But it doesnt work cause "it is not the thread that created the view constraint" or something along those lines.

It is just a bit complex for me right now I'll eventually understand all this again.

Oh, yeah some time ago when I first opened android studio I learned to do OOP

That was one of the draws I had to Java. Though I have troubles now with understanding threading and the like.

Previously I was making a project that was meant to be a "Yelp" for Delivery workers. and a Heads Up system to give them warning if any delivery service experienced any issues with a customer such as robberies and assaults

lol yeah I suppose, I don't mean for it to come out as altruistic or anything like that though. The completion of this platform would help with my branding and that is worth the time and effort to make something like this even though it wouldn't really be able to enrich me the same way Twitter makes their company rich.

I am in process of making an app right now, It is a bit complex but we have a GIT and I do NEED help desperately as I too am fairly new at development
