What Hacker News says

Yeah same here- it reminds me a lot of "the old days" of the internet where you just stumbled across cool things from sites with lists of links and no real decent search engine or e-commerce going on. There is some interesting stuff people are playing with in Dat - e.g. their Twitter clone (1) has the actual posts distributed in what they are calling their WebDB. I.e. you as an individual publish posts at a dat:// address you control, and the central site just references that address when other users load the feed. Your posts are distributed across the other users so there is no SPOF. There is the kernel of something really interesting there in this GDPR-world where people need to be more aware of who has their data, and what can be done to control that. Interesting stuff. 1 - https://github.com/beakerbrowser/fritter/blob/master/README..
