I’m sorry this idea is kind of hard to explain. Like if you had a torrent, but every week or so you’d have new interesting stuff to discover from it ?
LIke a “torrent channel” but fully decentralized somehow ?
Maybe you’d just get more torrents to choose from. Large, searchable torrent archives, “this week’s new torrents” ?
What about receiving news video, streams without a website to coordinate it, no gatekeeper except the digital signature of the strangers you trust ?
Like, why isn’t facebook a torrent network ? Why isn’t youtube, just torrents ? Facebook and youtube without having to ask Zuck and Goog for permission ?
There was a peer 2 peer reddit clone I used 5 years ago. It was a standalone app for linux. I forgot what it was called. It was pretty dead back then though, less than one post per day.
edit: i found it https://getaether.net/
OH yeah, I remember that !
