The no-UI part will probably deter a big portion of players. Allowing own tooling on the other hand sounds cool. Adding an optional UI, or getting someone to do it for you would certainly help. But then again, if it is interesting enough, someone might just do so after you launched it without a UI

Lots of bias in this thread. But maybe we can have a technical discussion?

I'm not into this topic, so maybe someone else can answer this: How "zero-knowledge" is this actually?

As far as I understand, there are three parties here: 1. Me, the user; 2. The site I want to access; 3. The attestor (google? my government?). What do they know about each other?

Does the site know who I am?

Does the site know who my attestor is (and therefore, for example, that it doesn't like Winnie-the-Poo memes)?

Does the attestor know what site or kind of content I want to visit (and therefore e.g. if he agrees with it)?

Does the attestor know who I am?

Do I always know who the site and attestor are, and when this proof happens?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but do you guys not have radio controlled clocks outside of Europe? If I got it right, the only purpose of this project is to always display the correct time. Radio controlled clocks do exactly that. They are cheaper than the one ESP board, and run years on a single AA battery. No WiFi, tinkering, setup, or cables necessary

Does anyone know why alanlog optical switches never gained traction, but analog magnetic ones did? Sounds like optical ones should be cheaper to manufacture, with all the same benefits?
