We need to develop more alternatives like federated social media or even completely make web services p2p. And then have them somewhat democratically controlled, or easily able to migrate to alternatives without cost of loosing network effects.

Especially something like amazon / ebay / paypal / ali would be awesome to replace with a "public utility" federated version. They tax so much of the sales and it all goes to psycho billionaires.

Old web revival. Personal sites. Protocol based chat.

Web services are already peer to peer, you mean "decentralized".

[-] LarmyOfLone@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

Not sure I understand, peer to peer is always decentralized, i.e. no central server. But the main feature would have to be that you can switch or fork a web application / service - but take your networks with you like a federated service. Not sure how that can work tbh.

I2P is a "peer-to-peer" internet, so to speak. Not much going on there, but it exists. If you're old enough, think of it as a separate internet that exists in a Kazaa/eMule-esque network.

Oh I still mourn eMule haha. I always thought it was better than torrent, but torrent won for some reason - presumably because it needed more websites and servers to function and that created a market and a marketing gain. I guess I should check out I2P.
