I found this article[1] which provided this insight into the relationship between the two.

> Now, in 2021, there is a growing underground project called Scuttlebutt that is tackling the decentralized web from a different perspective. Unlike Diaspora and Mastodon, Scuttlebutt is not a product for end-users — rather, it’s a protocol (like HTTP or RSS). Decentralized social network products, like Manyverse and Planetary, are being built for end-users on top of the Scuttlebutt protocol.

It's an implementation of SSB, but not SSB. Just like you wouldn't say Chrome is HTTP, but that it has an implementation of the HTTP protocol.

Also, "scuttlebug", a not-so-subtle insult or odd typo?

>scuttlebug

If the last part of that comment is dig implying that SSB is buggy, then providing some additional details about bugs we should be aware of would be illuminating.

I think Manyverse is just an UI for whatever Scuttlebug is.
