there is a rightwinger instance constantly showing up in my feed and blocking users/communities one by one is getting a bit annoying :/
The good thing is you can always run a tiny instance for just yourself and not defederate with anyone if other communities defederate too aggressively.
im sure it would need some tweaks to how sync works but i think its completely possible for every user that wanted to have thier own instance, running right on thier phone if they desired.
I can already imagine a few ways that can go wrong. This would be a awesome way to do it though but there are many issues that would have to be addressed for that.
same, but its not like its something that hasent been worked on intensely for the past 15 years or anything, using mechanisms that require a level of consensus we dont need the overhead of meaning higher throughput. We also dont have the read only write-forward problems that those systems have so we can simply leverage the very well refined P2P mechanisms they use, i bet if we go looking, we find one that has its p2p protocol implementation in its own github even.
the thrust here is rather than diy, lets leverage work where billions have already been sunk.
