    The problem you run into with a decentralized site is you have to mirror massive amounts of data. I think this is what killed usenet. Also spam is hard to fight. I wonder if a fede…

    I have been thinking it would be cool to have a Reddit replacement ran by a non profit, similar to Wikipedia. Does anyone here have experience running something like that? I unders…

    The problem with allowing self-signed certificates has always been distinguishing if a site should be signed by a CA or not. Consider the follow situation: Alice sends Bob a link: …
