Critique of Crypto/Web3
> That's not a bad thing, but it isn't true anyway, you literally login with your wallet.
> Here's more geared towards your "genuine curiosity" of web3 apps
I get that you weren't addressing my particular interest in your original post. I've put in a decent amount of time digging through the links you've shared; I'd appreciate if you accepted my curiosity in good faith.
Thanks for sharing more links, though they are not terribly digestible. The first link in particular seems to have many decentralized applications that don't use a blockchain (see below).
> https://github.com/gdamdam/awesome-decentralized-web
These are all cool decentralized web applications (many with real value, including bittorrent, mastodon, etc) -- but how many are built on a decentralized ledger / blockchain? Eight include "blockchain" in their description, and only three I would consider "apps":
- BigchainDB [dev tool] - a 'database'
- storj [dev tool] - blockchain-based object storage
- dtube [application]- decentralized video platform built on a blockchain ("STEEM")
- opentimestamps [dev tool?] - blockhain timestamping (not sure what this is for?)
- namecoin [application] - dns on blockchain
- steemit [application] - blogging/social networking on top of a blockchain db
- arcblock [dev tool] - tool for building "dapps, blockchains and websites"
I'm specifically curious about useful applications for decentralized ledgers, if that wasn't clear. The web/internet already runs on many decentralized protocols.
## STEEM
Both dtube and steemit are built on "STEEM", which seems to function as a form of social credit. Basically, whuffie (for the Doctorow fans out there). That's kinda cool[1].
IIUC:
- new users get 15 STEEM (where does this come from? is this not a spam vector?)
- posting costs STEEM
- upvoting content yields STEEM for the producer (content creation)
- early upvoters earn STEEM (curation)
The crypto part is mostly managing relationships and influence, not attempting to decentralize the actual shuffling of bits. Reasonable. Influence being portable across social networks is a cool idea too.
But how does the _business_ of this work, and is it an improvement over centralized social networks? Steemit, Inc, funds itself via the STEEM digital currency. The STEEM digital currency can be bought -- i.e., influence on the networks can be bought. Is this better than buying likes/comments/subscribers? Abstractly, it might keep the actual social signals cleaner -- except that IIUC you have to like/comment/etc to actually have your STEEM influence people! It's not clear to me that having the network funded by selling influence is an improvement. In ahttps://www.coindesk.com/markets/2020/05/20/steem-hard-fork-..., off-platform deals to leverage other people's influence will still be a reality.
So what are the benefits? Theoretically influence becomes decentralized, though the role that Steemit Inc plays is unclear to me. How are new participants funded? Who actually runs and pays for the social network infrastructure? And of course there are the usual risks like 51% attacks.
In practice: according to reddit.com/r/steemit, Steem has been forked because Steemit was acquired and the community didn't trust the new owners who had a majority share (STEEM used proof-of-stake, not proof-of-work). This was because of some drama involving "witnesses", presumably having to do with implementing the actual STEEM rewards/rate limiting. This happened in Apr 2020. The sticked post on r/steemit is from only six months ago (Aug 2021) for some reason. This explains why steemit.com seemed dead. https://hive.blog is apparently where all the action is now. Tthere are other UIs (or could be), so this is not centralized (does this mean the actual content is on the chain? Seems expensive and unscalable).
Detangling just this one "dapp" took >30 minutes. All the crypto stuff aside, hive.blog looks basically like a multireddit made of small subreddits (DTube shows up as the equivalent of a subreddit[2], btw).
## Namecoin
Once you have decentralized DNS the others can already rely on other decentralized parts of the internet (IP, etc).
DNS is not really centralized IMO, which the existence of Namecoin itself attests to. You can choose your nameservers; arbitrary levels of subdomains are supported; etc. If you are capable of opting into Namecoin, why not another root DNS?
Practically Namecoin acts like another root of trust. How well does it perform this function?

Ask HN: Is it technically possible to evade big-tech censorship?
I think there are a lot of things that can be referred to as options to avoid your ISP from dropping you. But when your service is spending over $100k a month on an AWS bill like Parler claims to have been you are scaled up enough to need a lot of power, bandwidth, and storage to recreate that infrastructure. There are a lot of P2P and blockchain decentralized (or mostly) people could try to use. But the main issue with them is how tech savvy need to be to even access them. Most of the things in this example list require deeper understanding than most Parler users probably have.
https://github.com/gdamdam/awesome-decentralized-web
Even something as simple as DNS can be blocked or altered by the registrar or provider(s). So you need to have a top down solution to all the various potentialities.

Cold storage crypto wallets?
Hey so I've been meaning to move away from my hot wallet (coinbase) and I already have a trezor hardware wallet. But that's more for what I would call "vault storage" which is kinda like a savings account for a bank. I don't wanna have to pull out my big vault for small everyday transactions and i don't really like having my funds stored in hot wallets. So i was looking into some cold storage wallets and i came across both unstopable and exodus does anyone have any experience with these/the companies behind them and things that i may want to think about when choosing one? Or do you have your own wallet that you prefer if so let me know. <3

Unstoppable release cycles
I notice there are plenty of patched bugs on Github, but it takes forever to get the fixes to the users that just simply need a working app. Usually it is the development of new (NFT lately) features, that don't add or improve the functionality of the core wallet and assets, that are stopping this from being a usable wallet for most people. All NFT's seem to be doing, is blunting the development of usable transactional technology so people can save their cartoons and have all the special feelz.
