A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Excuse me if i'm a bit evangelical, but IPFS (or maybe scuttlebutt for multi-way communication) would be much better suited to that.

I really fail to see the point in server-based stuff nowadays unless you're in a specific controlled environment where distribution would just be inefficient. P2P is simply the way to go for something that you want to work with whatever infrastructure can be cobbled together from tin cans and hairpins.
