You are right. It is not a new idea, but most if not all other projects that were mentioned in the comments are dead by now.
What do you think about something like this? It’s more of a “build your own sandwich” approach.
Thank you once again for the detailed explanation!
Thank you! You explained it really well. As I understand it, most of the physical infrastructure for data transmission belongs to some private company. These companies sell the usage rights to smaller companies and so on. So these companies are the ISPs. In this sense, you would either have to build your own network infrastructure (cables, routers, switches) or rent the infrastructure from the owners.
The physical infrastructure is basically largely independent of the protocols that run through it (optical cables simply carry light). Couldn’t this infrastructure then somehow be used as a direct connection between two users via a protocol other than IP?
What specifically do you find objectionable with ISPs or ICANN?
They are a centralized government controlled organizations, which poses a fundamental problem for a neutral net.
In the end the only thing you really need to pay for is the physical backbone and the energy to power your access point and the transmission. Everything software/routing related can, and as I see it, should be completely decentralized, independent and neutral.
Pardon my ignorance but if I would want to get rid of the whole ISP & ICANN gatekeeping alltogether, would I have to operate on a different layer 2 or layer 3 protocol? By that I mean if it would be enough to replace the IP with a decentralized protocol like B.A.T.M.A.N or Netsukuku?
I’m using maliit myself but it hasn’t received any updates for over a year now and there are some important features missing like a button to hide the keyboard. I really don’t know any better alternatives tho
Is the desktop feature implemented? Something like multiple lanes you can switch back and forth.
Wow, very useful indeed /s
Now we have nu and fish. Great!
Would you mind explaining why this shift happened? Isn’t OpenStack more capable than any k8 setup?
It’s for getting acquainted with the whole software stack. Also I have enough free time for it :) I’m also very well aware what the difference between a container service and a hypervisor are, I’m just a little overwhelmed by what open stack can do.
I2P isn’t a service if you mean that. It is a whole new network just like the regular clearnet or the tor network.
What do you mean?
Your smtp will still be able to connect to other services afaik. Its just about the hosted website.
I just meant it as a static domain to host stuff. If you don’t care about anonymity you can just reduce the hops and it will get fairly stable.
This one will be a bit trickier because of federation. Maybe it is even impossible. But for git hosting, website hosting, email, your cloud, various chats software or torrents it should just work.
For most use cases you can host everything on I2P.
I still prefer logseq
