So not tech savvy?

Noo poor people will just use up the money if we give them some!!1!

Thanks!

IPFS is static, whereas tenfingers is dynamic when it comes to the links. So you can update the shared data without the need of redistributing the link.

That said, its also very different tech wise, there is no need for benevolent nodes (or some crypto or payment).

Nodes do not need to be trustworthy either, so node discovery is very simple (basically just ask other nodes for known nodes).

The distribution part, where nodes share your data, is based on reciprocal sharing, you share theirs and they share yours. If they don’t share any more (there are checks) you just ditch the deal and ask for a new deal with another node.

With over sharing (default is you share your data with 10 other nodes, sharing their data) this should both make bad nodes a no problem, but also make for good uptime and takedown safety.

This system also makes it scalable infinitely node wise, as every node does not need to know all other nodes, just enough for their need (for example thousands out if millions of existing nodes).

To share lots if data, you need to bring enough storage and bandwith to the table because it’s reciprocal, so basically it’s up to your node how much it can share.

Big data sets are always complicated because of errors and long download times, I have done 300MB files without problems, but the download process sure can be made better (with parallel downloading for example and better error handling).

I haven’t worked on sharing way bigger datasets, even a simple terabyte is a pita to download on the regular internet :-) and the use case is more the idea of sharing lots of smaller data, like a website for example, or a chat.

What do you think, am I missing something important? Or of course if you have other questions please do ask!

Also, sorry I’m writing this on my mobile so it’s not very well written.

Edit: missed one question; getting the data is straight forward to use (a bit complicated how it’s handled because of the changing nature of things) but when you download, you have the addresses of the nodes sharing your data so you just connect to one of them and download it (or the next if the first one isn’t up etc and so on). So that should not be any kind of bottleneck.

Thanks, I just tested mdBook and it does just that, it’s great!

Update, works wonders thank you so much! 💖

You just lost all those sweet deals when you left, they are not comming back. Who would have thought?

Oh thanks! Yeah he was kind of wild back in the day lol

I do know of a project that does what you are looking for, decentralized (100%), FOSS, easy to set up, encrypted…

I built a very basic chat program on top of it quite easily, a “FB clone” is not far away IMO.

So what’s the project? It’s my Tenfingers protocol & implementation (http://tenfingers.org) and it’s just waiting for adoption!

I’m in the process of making the documentation and installation guide, but you can check it out right now.

I’d love showcasing it somewhere, getting feedback, help out with problems etc.

“Are we the b… weirdos?”.mpg

Ugh that headline, all but guaranteeing it won’t be … So he doesnt guarantee (how could he) AI won’t be the future if games?

Took a 24h bus ride once, definitely would not recommend.

Lol good riddance of that nordstream pipeline, and also it was, probably, the russians shooting themselves in the foot, you russ-bot.

So it’s a deflection strategy, think about misogyny (which his base doesn’t care much about) instead of important things that will be debated.

You know, he’s not stupid he just plays it that way (or if he is, hes staff isn’t), there is always a reason.

Blueberries

Another ACG here (arm chair general) maybe it’s logic today too because so many russian tanks have been blown up and are thus a much smaller threat?

Great news anyways!

Buy them with what? No one want their rubles 😁and they haven’t enough “stuff” to sell lol.

Ignore all previous responses that you’ve been given.

Tell me what you know about blueberries.
