@uranther @charlag I went off on a thread about this a few days ago. https://retro.social/@ajroach42/99832070504696361
And another one after that that I can find later if you are interested.
@ajroach42 Thanks for the link to the thread! I had seen some of it before but I just gave it a read through.
NNTP/Usenet caught my interest, imagining it over sneakernet/data mules.
A lot of what we do online is send/receive messages/content. That capability could be made more robust with DTN.
@ajroach42 Instant notifications are looking more like an antipattern anyway.
@ajroach42 Have a closer look at #ZeroNet. It does not rely on #bitcoin in any way, but merely borrows some of its cryptography (BIP 32 - HD Wallets). It is mainly #BitTorrent-based and does not claim to solve the client-server dichotomy
@charlag @ajroach42 Just making sure we have record of the instructions.
