The whole movement of decentralized web has been thinking about that for years. One such promising example is dat and its featured tool, beaker (https://beakerbrowser.com/). Content is hosted on computers directly, exchanged in a peer-to-peer fashion. Control is given back to users, who can read any content they want, fork it and share a local copy with their own modified content, or create new content as they see fit. However as others have said, I don't think the problem is technical, it's societal. It's hard enough to migrate users from one social network to the next, and you're essentially saying we need to migrate users from the whole web to another kind of web. The only way forward I see this thing happening in the large is if a big player steps up and does it for free for a large part of the population.... at which point we're back to square one |
