How it that different from IPFS? ipfs.tech
Or even better Veilid?
Not too different vs IPFS, essentially the IPFS network if it was using WebTorrent. Both rely on swarms of p2p users/servers to seed/pin data to keep it online.
I’m not too familiar with Veilid but that does seem different since it’s built for privacy so I doubt all the peers are public in that scenario. There is nothing private about IPFS or WebTorrent, all peer IP addresses are public in their respective swarms.
Sounds like I2P without the privacy.
So it makes a swarm and distributes pieces of the site all over the internet. Theoretically, the original peer can go down and the site keeps running.
Thats not how i2p works. I2p works in a different way and solves a different problem.
However, i2p CAN torrent so technically you could stack this technology in top of it.
Is it gonna be full of n-word teens too?
The kinds of communities you align yourself with is up to you, I suppose.
Perhaps that is the point: peer auditing instead of blind forwarding
I am sorry but this is so clearly vibe coded and lazily, i would not trust the security of that thing one second…
A question: can you modify the site (edit its content etc.) once it’s published?
Because the uses for a never-changing site are quite limited.
Also, the content is statically-generated only, I guess? No server-side rendering? No POSTing, etc? Or…is this creating some cache based on a real server it contacts…?
Server-side rendering is an abomination that should never have been a thing imo. Fix your website if it’s too slow client-side.
Server side rendering includes showing a list of 10 elements in a catalog of 10K elements. Do you really want to transfer all the catalog to each client every time?
A catalog of 10, yes. Splitting the db is backend stuff, not rendering stuff. Click on “load 10 more” loads the next split of 10. Why do you web guys always have to implement stuff in a overengineering way?
Who says I’m a “web guy”. It’s only that a server has its uses and a client has its uses. Sending all the DB to the client is as bad as streaming an FPS from a server.
I edited my comment to better express what i meant.
It shows deleted
no source code
no paper
no open protocol definition
full of emojis
LMAO
Wrong. The TLD is
loland notlmao.Yea it’s just some vibe coded garbage. It being littered with emoji is the dead giveaway.
Even the website style is stereotypically AI
Sounds like a recipe for child porn everywhere
Not really. Decentralized does not mean anonymous… and I doubt people sharing that type of content are doing it publicly with their public IP addresses.
Looks like PeerWeb uses WebTorrent - so that means every single IP address serving the website is easily found in the peer list of the torrent swarm. Nothing anonymous about this.
Twitter already exists
Please read about web torrent and how it works before spilling BS. There are too many of you out there thinking you know everything and keep going around spreading BS. Internet has amplified it as now you lot have a voice. Because there is too many of you, government should assign a number to each citizen linked to their IP like a driver license or heck link the DL to their IP so that government can monitor what people type. Too many idiots, racist, pedophiles these days and we need to catch em all like pokemon.
Might be because I’m on Ironfox maybe but it just stays on connecting to peers for me with nothing else happening. So yeah not one for me.
