No! That’s a fuck’n retarded question!

Yeah, that makes sense. It’s just degrees of friction. I can have my company’s data centers built out in different regions and run my own hardware, middleware and software. It’s just a lot more difficult than someone coming up with a decentralized version of “Amazon” and me using that. Providers would sell excess hardware capacity to users like is done in Akash Network, which is not on bitcoin payment rails. Someone could possible take Akash open source solution, rip out the shitcoinery and use lightning or cashu payments…. Maybe.

Yes, nostr relays don’t depend on particular infrastructure. How about complex apps that may use databases, require redundancy, must be performant, need fault tolerance, etc, that want to use nostr protocol and provide edge locations around the world? Where do those run?

White noise fixes the messaging focused issue, unless I’m misunderstanding. It doesn’t fix the cloud infrastructure centralization issue. Are there any projects addressing the broader issue?

Akash Network. Deploy Kubernetes apps on 50+ providers and you can fund with bitcoin. It’s not directly on bitcoin rails, but a hell of a lot better than Amazon. It’s open source, so nothing is preventing someone from forking and making bitcoin the native payment.

Decentralized infrastructure - Akash network. You can fund with bitcoin. You can run kubernetes apps on 50+ providers around the world. I don’t know of anything built directly atop bitcoin that provides this. No, I’m not a shitcoiner. I recognize value when I see it.

I’ll probably be called a shit coiner for this, but there are going to be a handful of projects out there that provide value beyond the bitcoin ecosystem. Could they be implemented atop bitcoin? Perhaps and they may be eventually. But Akash Network (on Cosmos) is decentralized cloud infrastructure that allows rapid deployment of Kubernetes apps on 50+ providers across the globe. No vendor lock in - google, azure, Amazon, etc. You can fund with bitcoin on Akash, but they do use their own token within the ecosystem. Is something like this being built that would be considered bitcoin native?

Bitcoin prevents theft of time and energy. Free and open speech allows one to expose the theft. Is it the chicken and the egg question?

Bitcoin being a once in humanity creation is so obvious now.

So you want a censored platform so you feel good? At least here you know what others think, whether it aligns with your views or not. Don’t get me wrong, I think anybody that comes on and hurls insults anonymously with no threat of retribution is a little bitch. That goes both ways. I don’t come on here for an echo chamber and confirmation of my opinion. I speak my mind and if it resonates with someone, great.
