#42Wow congrats on the launch! This looks really exciting.
Re: Show HN: We launched a new web browser
#43I apologize if this a naive question but a lot of this is new to me - are Forever domains and ENS and Handshake all complimentary or are they alternatives to each other?
Might anyone have any good resources for blockchain DNS they could share?

#44This is the kind of thing Linux users like.
...but cannot use, as of now.

#45Let me guess: your company ultimately profits somehow, whether directly or indirectly, from the use ("sale", presumably) of these "decentralized domains" and/or ".eth DNS"?

#46I can already imagine the DNSSEC/DANE naysayers' complaints. I don't care, I love this.

#47I have a question about blockchain DNS's. This might be the time to ask! There is a centralization aspect in any DNS, blockchain or otherwise in that, literally to be useful, there needs to be consensus about which chain operators own which .{name} extensions for a given name. Which makes financial incentive for say an investor to 'bribe' browsers into using their DNS, which then charges money to end users, which er.…
we already have "nameless" IP addresses, in which DNS is built on top of it as abstraction. using SHA256 is no better that using IPv6 IMO

#48built on Chromium If only Firefox(Gecko) would get some more attention...

A nameless phone number can be relayed verbally, and is easily memorized. Neither of those things is really true for a SHA256 hash.

#50Congrats on the launch. I think this indirectly slowed down the foreverdomains server with the HN traffic. Since you advertise "decentralized internet" vs blockchain, I'd love to see this also support some more non-blockchain protocols such as Dat ( https://dat.foundation/ ) and IPFS directly. Maybe even Bittorrent and Tor (Onion router). It may already do some of that, I just couldn't tell from your wording.
Don't forget the boys at the Oxen network and their Session program. Phenomenal work, better than Tor
> better than Tor
In what ways does it compare?
> the boys
I hope it's a much bigger world than that!
