Beautiful work and it's always nice to see new projects in these spaces! I'm the creator of OSINTBuddy which is a somewhat similar project if you squint haha. We've just recently finished porting our web app to an electron binary (unreleased) for people who perform sensitive investigations (aka we have encryption at rest via Turso database) and collaboration features will be done via WebRTC + a signalling server.

I'm loving the approach you took to the UI! I had some similar ideas in mind and plan to build narrative reconstruction and timeline view tools too so it's really nice to see how others have done so! I'll definitely be following your work and I shared your project in the OSINTBuddy discord to hopefully get some more eyes on it :)

Great work, I hope you keep at it :)


That's awesome, thank you so much for getting more eyeballs on it!

My approach to security so far has been to keep it air-gapped and include a nukeitfromorbit.bat that will do everything but physically destroy your SSD to keep your privacy intact.

The narrative reconstruction tool was pretty fun to make, and it's been impressive in testing, but the real test will be if it actually helps someone in a real investigation.

If you see anything in my project that could help your project, then that's awesome news to me!

I'm definitely going to keep working, and hopefully soon it's going to do some pretty cool stuff. All the best to you and OSINTBuddy


Lol I feel the similar, I signed an earlier version when the Manifesto was far different but since they've changed it from that I now want my name removed >:(

One of the creators is Alex (former Google Chrome Project Lead ~ https://komoroske.com/) and we spoke on a Google meet call recently. He's currently trying to hype up confidential computing which is a cool technical challenge but I have my doubts in regards to confidential compute being super feasible/realistic. I suspect crackers/hackers will always find a way in


Some books Ive been reading/plan to read: https://studium.dev/books

I noticed some spam this morni g too, I didnt see any hate but the accounts were opening issues on repos with the issue content pointing to weird URLs. This happens on occasion, best to just report, ignore, and move on with life.



Lately Ive been thinking about building a desktop app with Rust and Ive started exploring the gpui library from Zed to see what its capable of. I haven't entirely decided on what the app will be but I do know I need network graphs to satiate my graph obsession so I started the `gpug` project a few days ago. It's a network graph visualization library built on top of gpui: https://github.com/jerlendds/gpug


Built this last night and fixed a bug today. It's a proof-of-concept of how to render network graphs with Zed's (https://zed.dev/blog/gpui-2-on-preview) gpui library. I plan to turn this into a more general purpose component library somewhat following the style/API of Reactflow (https://reactflow.dev) and Sigma.js (https://www.sigmajs.org/)


OSINTBuddy - https://github.com/osintbuddy/osintbuddy

Currently thinking about how to wire in entity attachments into the plugin system for a wayback machine plugin


I have lots of bad and good ideas here: https://studium.dev/ideas

Some of them are simply things I want to try building for the sake of it and they already exist, some of them dont exist and are decent ideas, some are just awful


I feel seen, I do this in a markdown file which is built and uploaded to my personal site

For those curious: https://studium.dev - built with Quartz (https://quartz.jzhao.xyz/)
