This tool also works without internet connectivity: you'll have your own database locally, so you don't need to go online to read posts.
In addition, it has native support for subscribing via peer-to-peer feeds if you use Agregore, Galacteek or any other p2p browser. This makes use of the peer-to-peer published versions of people's sites, fostering the ecosystem to gradually adopt decentralized publishing flows. Consequently, streams are more resistant to outages or attacks, given that their data is distributed across multiple nodes. 💪
