@cblgh it's not that straightfwd - we are building the Ahau community in parallel, we want to use the same tech. I built ssb-tribes
for Ahau, and now Manyverse is soon to benefit from that mahi (work/ labour). Likewise, we get to benefit in Ahau from the awesome work Staltz, Arj and other have done with Meta-Feeds and db2, replication schedular.
I see it as a socio-techinical substrate yes. And I don't want to think of SSB just as a FB-like layer, I want many layers, all local-centric and community enhancing.
