One of the major limits in Secure Scuttlebutt is the inability to reliably support multiple clients for the same account, limiting users to one device per identity.
A possible way to approach this would be an #ssb client that can act as a gateway for other clients, so say I could run Patchwork on my PC and connect to it remotely from my laptop or mobile client. A more technical user could put it on a VPS.
WhatsApp does something like this though it's limited to running the gateway on a smartphone.

@polychrome do you know if there are plans to support true multi-device? Gateways like whatsapp does it are a major pain...
I don't know scuttlebutt's specifics, but wouldn't "yeah this key can speak for me as well" work well enough, where your devices do cross-signing or smth
@f0x I'm still figuring this out myself. I don't know if there's any plans for that.
