Web3 Dev, what should I build?

  • 🔧 At about Midnight EST I am going to completely fuck up the site trying to fix something.
unironically build an archival service that is more reliable than Internet Archive and archive.md
or a distrubted decentralized forum

there are actual good things you can do with decentralization besides making stupid monkey pictures

OnlyFans clone. I mean fuck web3, the idea of integrating payment into websites is fucking awful for the end users long term. Gonna be pay to surf one day. But an OnlyFans clone would be particularly suited to the charge for everything mentality.

As long as I don't go to prison, I should be working on a "decentralized infrastructure DAO" project in 2023.

requires lots of storage

---------------edit
just had a thought. if KF goes offline, the decentralized infrastructure DAO thing would really be of interest to the "free speech" argument. A bit ambitious, but not anything that hasn't been done before.

Why store anything locally, what about IPFS or storj for that?

yes that was what I was talking about in decentralized forums.
https://github.com/CovenantSQL/CovenantForum this is one example I found of the idea

streaming speeds for other usecases. "power" is the main thing that comes to mind.
i know storage is cheap ,but is it so cheap that ipfs can host all of youtube? i don't know, I don't think so though

when you say "local" I am thinking relative to the servers/cloud of this infrastructure I've talked about. not local as in user's client

there are sites that do this already, they use chainlink. Any values they verify with their oracles you can build into a smart contract and do anything with. You could of course make your own verification system but they already have a lot of shit covered.

Probably not ipfs now that I asked a dude about it, the speeds are apparently in line with tor. Storj might work, particularly if the onus to store data is on the client.

Although, really, cost be damned if you can create a viable YT competitor. The catbox person spends about $7g a month on hosting, and not sure about gvid.tv, but might be worth talking to the dude, he's pretty accessible. The potential value of a viable competitor is enormous and probably worth eating some costs for.

But what I was thinking of was more of facilitating the process of women whoring themselves out, letting the users bear any costs, and taking a cut. Digital pimp.

yeah lol, chainlink is my competition a bit.

I know it sounds grand, but this should be possible. our solution is pretty crude, we just have watchers backed by assets physically watching over the boxes. the big innovation is how the governance protocol works because it is very difficult to compromise.

what about making kiwi.tv
like a version of http://watch.mati.live/
but it would host the videos and have an archive of old ones and older streams. And you could even put a fount end in to add the live stream to the site, but all around just have a "cleaner look"
 
Current "Web3", does that just mean infect everything with crypto scams? The decentralized Internet vision of Web3 is still only a concept, it's also a band-aid fix for society going to shit and censoring everything. Technology requires centralization to expand; just because people found a cool way to distribute a ledger doesn't mean you can extrapolate it out to all communications. In a perfect would you wouldn't need Web3 because people wouldn't want to kill you and ban you from everything for saying Nigger, and you can't simply add some decentralization to fix that problem.
 
If "web3" had any actual value besides being another buzzword pajeets can add to their cryptoscams you wouldn't be asking the question of "what to build", you would be building something already.

How about do a flip instead

The infrastructure project actually makes web3 useful, because now we're capable of decentralizing everything else.
I asked "what build?" just to get some ideas.
Most of the ideas here wont work without that infrastructure.

Idk, just looking for a spark. Long road ahead. lots of code. not sure I want to do it. really existential

What does that have to do with anything? You pay an ISP so nobody should mind being forced to pay for all the content they access? I do not follow that thinking at all.
