It's lovely to see the polite and respectful back and forth in this comment thread where the Iroh folks are talking about deciding to fork. :)

I very much agree, a nice contrast to so much open source drama

disclosure: I work on the team behind noq. Can't emphasize enough that the quinn maintainers are really lovely people, and quinn is an excellent project.

iroh seems like a very well positioned product in the era of people rapidly building applications for personal use. I'm really interested in seeing how they continue to grow.

I personally have been looking off and on at providing an "app relay" using it, where people can get an OSS, self-hostable (if desired), zero config way to remotely access their app/data on their network. This would be separate than a "network relay" (a la Tailscale), as this is done selectively as part of the application server and client, requires no knowledge or configuration as the user, and exposes a much smaller surface area.

Love the folks from n0. I regularly use their sendme cli for peer to peer file transfer!

I was just reading the QUIC multipath RFC. Didn't it come out literally yesterday? I guess it's common to have the implementation foreshadowing the RFC but it's jarring to see them back to back like this.

It's been a draft for a long while, and was only recently approved
