Radicle Desktop is out! Kudos! Get it at radicle.xyz/desktop/ 👾

This looks neat, but I read the about page and it doesn’t look like it uses a blockchain at all (laudatory), am I missing something?

Radicle does not use Blockchain technology. It is a peer to peer network, where nodes gossip metadata about repositories. Nodes subscribe to repositories, and when they learn about a change they are interested in, Git is used to synchronize. All changes are cryptographically signed.

That’s great! I hope they change the TLD away from xyz so that can remain a useful indicator for crypto/blockchain projects.
