Thats interesting so steam isnt fully decentralized after all with a single point of failure bringing the network down. Is it the same with Dtube do you know that? Cause i thought Dtube is working with IPFS. Left a like and a follow :)
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Steem is decentralised, Steemit.com isn't. Steem is the blockchain and Steemit is a frontend. Dtube is also just a frontend.
So is it even possible to decentralize a frontend for example steemit.com?
Theoretically? Yes.
Practically? Doable.
Is steemit big enough for that? No.
You could make a few dozen copies of Steemit, that would be decentralize light, but they all need to have a full node running (or it would not make sense if you have to go back to a centralized server) and that takes a bit of ressources. Like more bandwidth than you have on a home line.
