I think we should be working more on improving consumer and enterprise software for local area networks! The global internet does not need the level of hops we are using to transmit data. Things should be done locally first. I don't even want to say "offline first" because the idea of a binary online/offline is again a symptom of thinking that one is either "connected to the internet" or not, with the former implying very comfortable access to the internet to get anything done. We should be encouraging things like IPFS. Back in the day, usegroups and other software did things better than the glorified mainframe approach of today.
