random-db
A PostgreSQL-compatible database that stores your data as emoji posts and tile art on Bluesky.

database art absurd
random-db is my answer to the question nobody asked: what if your database lived entirely on social media? It speaks the PostgreSQL wire protocol, so you connect with psql and run real SQL — but every table, row, and WAL record is stored as emoji sequences and geometric tile art posted to a Bluesky feed.
Your data becomes public art that scrolls down a timeline. It’s a genuine storage engine wearing the world’s least practical backend, and building it meant implementing enough of Postgres’ protocol and an encoding scheme that round-trips through posts without losing a byte.
