This section https://handbook.scuttlebutt.nz/faq/basics/delete

Prompted by a discussion on mastodon https://merveilles.town/@ndpi/103720432396632607

The section talks about gossip.json and not conn.json, it asks the user to run ssb-server (instead of a more regular client), it warns the user not to fork their feed but not that they shouldn't use pub invites, and in turn it doesn't tell the user how to resync without using a pub invite (in case they don't have their conn.json).

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?
