I've got a note about this in the FAQ (https://docs.tildes.net/faq#why-isnt-tildes-decentralizeddistributedfederated https://docs.tildes.net/faq#why-isnt-tildes-decentralizeddis...): > Why isn't Tildes decentralized/distributed/federated? > Decentralized communities are interesting and have a lot of potential, but that model also introduces its own problems and difficulties. Tildes is already attempting to do quite a few things differently to improve the quality of online communities, and I'm more interested in focusing on those goals without introducing the additional complexity of decentralization. > However, since Tildes is open-source, someone else could certainly use it as a base for their own decentralized version. I'm not interested in running a decentralized version myself, but I'd love to see someone else try to make it work.
