Half baked idea time

Distributed, decentralized, social media.

The problem, imho, is servers. You can set up a mess of servers, but that still centralizes on them.

My uncooked idea is to completely decentralize to the device and build the network friend to friend up, each acting like a small dns for all its connections and so on.

Yes, storage issues. Yes connection issues, but.. for real decentralized
