I've just spent the last 10 minutes going down the rabbit hole of various butt plug projects,

Who knew there would be a thriving community of butt plug hackers lmao.

I am pretty sure it is a pain in the ass to debug...

(ok sorry I am out...)

Kind of serious question, is there an "OpenPlug" standard floating around? To your point, interest in this sort of thing is really... exploding.

So buttplug.io as a library is made for supporting communication with toys from a host, but itself is not made to be a peripheral protocol. It's verbose af because of some of the early decisions I made that we are now very very stuck with.

That said, on the firmware side, I'm pushing for tcode, which is a sort of gcode variant for sex toy firmware. There's documentation for it in STPIHKAL (sex toy protocols i have known and loved), our protocol aggregation repo:

Nice. Just yesterday, I was moving books around and spent time flipping through PiHKAL and TiHKAL
