And yet here you are. I'm interested how you would perceive something that might supercede the internet by being better (than a boiling toilet fueled by greed), ignoring network effects?
- SmellyGeekBoy 7y agoSomething similar to the web in the late 90s / early 2000s?
- Gh0stRAT 7y agoThe Internet of the early 2000s was consumed by greed. What changes would you make to its replacement to prevent the exact same pattern from repeating?
- MisterTea 7y agoExactly what I'm thinking. Not everything is awful but the insistence of turning the browser into a vm and loading random javascript is pure insane. I'm not advocating for stoneage html and frames but let's take a step back and realize that not every website has to be an interactive webpage some designer dreamed up. I want information, not entertainment or an experience. The experience is what I take away from the information, not the clown paint smeared all over it for show.
- icandoit 7y agoEveryone has to be somewhere. I would not be surprised to find someone, who feels like the modern internet as it exists is terrible, on hacker news. I believe the sentiment is more common here than say, the comments section on CNN. I like the approach taken by the folks at the dat project and beaker browser. Let's make the web a DHT already. If we can force consumers to share what they consume then a DDOS becomes impractical for censoring speech (the speech spreads all over the network, making it counterproductive).
