There are plenty of technical reasons why the web is centralized.
I cannot even host a server on my residential service without violating the ToS agreement. Even if I did, there is the problem of not enough IP addresses so my IP is dynamic. This is solved with dynamic dns, etc but is another technical hurdle to overcome. And then there is NAT creating yet another layer to hosting your own server. And I won't even go into security.
These are all solvable, but to say there is little to do with the technical design ignores all of the problems that led us to where we are today.
