Why can't you do that today? Internet connections are much faster. Most people aren't under CG-NAT. Even a raspberry pi can be a server. What are you arguing

Why can't you do that today?
Internet connections are much faster. Most people aren't under CG-NAT.
Even a raspberry pi can be a server.
What are you arguing here?
Why is your tech illiterate mum setting up a http server but can't do https?
Wouldn't it be better to create a blog on medium?
Or a site on square space?
How about a free site with GitHub pages?
I just don't understand the idea that people want to set up something and forget about it.
That's how you get hacked and turned into part of a botnet.
- wegs 6y agoI'm arguing: (1) The poster arguing this was 10 minutes was being dishonest. (2) As the original article said, it's a different internet if the only way to get something up is to go through Square Space or Github pages. It's much less decentralized, and much more corporate. Yes, I do think the internet could have evolved to where a tech-illiterate mum could host her own web page from her router at home. It didn't, and we lost something in that process.
