I tried to do that at first with https://textshader.com https://textshader.com because the whole site is client-side and I didn't want to bother with a backend. It didn't really work because the state is unbounded in size, so instead I just chuck it on GitHub gists and then point to the gists. It means I don't have to store any data myself and there's zero recurring costs outside of the domain name... but if the site ever got popular I'd probably have to figure something else out.
- didericis 4y agoI dream of a world where there’s some kind of ipfs like thing for storing state in some sort of distributed commons, all while maintaining user privacy/allowing for state to expire if untouched, and monetized in a balanced way to incentivize hosting without discouraging consumer adoption too much/trending towards gouging. We’re so close/all the pieces needed seem to exist, but getting something like that off the ground is super difficult.
