I still prefer logseq

And amazon, apple, meta, nvidia, half the gaming industry, …

cool, now find another distro

Buddy, I just made a post about this a few hours ago here ^^

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.

Shiftphone?

What do you think about something like this? It’s more of a “build your own sandwich” approach.

How can it be lossless then?

It’s nice :)

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?

Ninja can’t help if the program does not want to cooperate :(

OBS?

Thanks for the detailed obesrvation! Yeah unfortunately it still has some technical issues and shortcomings but imo this platform has some great potential.

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

Audius.co

Tidal? You can even download all your music in lossless flac format

Does somebody know a good torrent music streaming app? Something like spotify but with data from musicbrainz or anything like that and the files from torrents.
