Yes, this is exactly what we are working on for 16 years now. Longest running torrent, trust and Tor-fork project: https://github.com/Tribler/tribler/wiki

Its as hard as making a decentralised Google and decentralised YouTube at the same time. Over 75 master students and PhDs put their coding efforts in it at Delft University.

Thnx! Sadly it's not that simple.

What IPFS, Dat protocol, Tribler, and all others are missing is "adverserial decentralised information retrieval".

For any keyword you type in, the match you want should show first. Trolling, Kremlin bots and copyright police forces should not be able to bring it down. Unsolved problem. How to create a privacy respecting relevance ranking or distributed clicklog.
