This is a candidate for the IgNobel Prize 🙃

Which ones?

Thanks, in the meantime also the version from fdroid works again.

Does anyone know or even use https://particl.io/marketplace?

The user Zerush here on Lemmy suggested https://andisearch.com some time ago. I have been using it for some months as my primary engine and I get very good results. My second choice is Mojeek and sometimes searx.ebnar.xyz

Mesh networks maybe? I’m not sure what you’re looking for.

I have been using Feeder for a while and it’s great imo.

I have the same issue, but haven’t found a solution yet.

If communities can create their own money, they’d be loosing a lot of central power.

Use Librewolf and Tor 😉

My 2 cents :-)

Yes, that’s one solution for a specific use case (-:

Nothing and no one is ever infallible. What I say is that the web as we know it is broken in that it has become a walled garden controllled by a few companies. And, yes, a lot of web3 doesn’t appear to change that, it’s just old wine in new bottles. We needed to discuss alternatives to different use case (payment and currency systems, how we monetize apps and other products, data hosting and sharing,. …). Energy efficiency and affordability are important issues, but I want to have choice and don’t want to become dependent on 5 or so companies in whatever I do. If that means that I have to pay, I’d be fine with that.

What dies “better” mean? If everything is stored on a single server owned by this one company in Mountain View or so, is it better then?

Tor doesn’t seem to help here if I got it right, because the data traffic is assigned to your phone number.

Does blockchain solve the double-spending problem? Can crypto currencies help devs (and possibly other creators) to monetize apps and other products?

I agree that blockchain is a solution to only a few problems, but can’t this be said about all technologies?

The author seems to implicitly suggest to keep up the status quo and ignores the potential of a new tech (yes, there is also much empty hype around). Blockchain may or may not live up its potential, but this depends on the decision we as humans make rather than on the technology imho.

I don’t know what to do with this article. It’s just a sequence os simplified examples. But that’s just my two cents.
