That's because everyone has forgotten the lessons from BitTorrent and the internet.
If you want something to be fast then your content needs to be hosted on servers with fast connectivity to other servers. And that's not possible when at the same time you're trying to avoid legal jurisdictions that will censor e.g. EU, US, CN etc.
- trasz 4y agoIf you want something to be fast you need it stored locally. Storage used to be big and expensive, thus the cloud. And network used to be slow and expensive too, so the uplink direction wasn’t very effective unless there was a company behind it. Which is to say - the main technical problems that hampered BitTorrent probably aren’t there anymore.
