I’m not the creator of this program, but its too fun not to share! The comments from the developer and users joining the swarms on the reddit thread are hilarious.
It’s basically a decentralized swarm of docker users. It does nothing except tell you how many other users you are connected to. Some are in the tens of thousands, haha!
Yeah for sure (Fanatic users come to me!) and I don’t have the promotional skill or funds, but Zeronet is a bitcoin horror (IMO) and IPFS is like the grandpa of decentralised sharing, cumbersome and lacking simple things like the ability to update a file.
One day it’ll take off because of its ease of use and elegance, that’s what I keep telling myself anyways 😅!
I don’t like those projects either. Scuttlebut and cjdns looked more “profesional” to my ignorant eyes. I bring these up because I’d like to hear your comments. I will check 10fingers now…
Thanks!!
Cjdns is more of a VPN or some sort of internet communication in itself, so not really a sharing protocol, more like a communication protocol. You could maybe build a sharing protocol on top of it but that has ofc to be done.
Scuttlebut seems to be very interesting, didn’t know about that one, thanks for the sharing! I’ll have to check it out a bit more thoroughly, but it seems like a sort of IPFS-like at a first glance.
Cheers!
