freenet-core VS contextualise

I just picked Dioxus to build a decentralized homepage for Freenet[1], it will be the first decentralized website people see when they get Freenet set up. It reminds me a bit of my Kotlin web framework called Kweb[2] that I've been working on on-and-off for a few years now, particularly the way it handles state and the DSL that maps from code to HTML. So far I like what I see.

I find that surprising, even in 2010 it was difficult to find illegal content on Freenet unless you were looking at it - and certainly in recent years it's virtually impossible, the default indexes are carefully vetted.

In any case, the original Freenet was never going to be a general-purpose replacement for today's centralized services. For the past few years we've been working on a sequel to Freenet, you can learn about it at https://freenet.org/.

MaidSAFE appears to be just another IPFS which you can pay to get your data hosted on.

HyperCore apparently got acquired and they are a company seeling solutions to businesses.

Freenet 2023 is a FOSS project. I'm watching the matrix server for a while. Ian says they're launching the network in 2 weeks. It is a decentralized data store + runtime. So while the original Freenet was analogous to disk, Freenet 2023 is analogous to an entire computer. See https://freenet.org/

I loved playing around with Gemini. Something loosely along those lines can definitely work. Who knows what will become popular in the future. Extreme web page bloat leaves the door open.

Here are a couple of other alternative ideas for the web:

I think cryptography is a decentralizing force in general, though its intersection with ML is small, Also, related things, steganography, differential privacy, federated learning, all things that tend to decentralize. Anonymizing text fingerprint with LLMs, ML-ish censor evading algo , possibility of a decentralized vector database

Through a variety of mechanisms that you can read about here.

This Friday we will be hosting an AMA with Ian Clarke (/u/sanity) the creator of FreeNet and the recently announced FreeNet 2023.

Contextualise, a tool to manage projects and/or activities with lots of unstructured data: a personal knowledge management tool of sorts. The link is here: (https://contextualise.dev/).

It's a MIT-licensed open source project: https://github.com/brettkromkamp/contextualise

That would be Contextualise (https://github.com/brettkromkamp/contextualise) with 980 stars. The project is 3-4 years old. So, it's slow-going. Nevertheless, there are many (underappreciated) projects that should have a lot more stars than they do, so I am not complaining :)

Somewhat indirectly, yes. I am the developer behind Contextualise a topic maps-based knowledge management application written in Python. The application and its GitHub repository generate a lot of interest (in the semantic knowledge management space) and have provided me with many freelance projects over the years.

That would have to be Contextualise (https://contextualise.dev/) and its accompanying open source project (https://github.com/brettkromkamp/contextualise).

I've been working on knowledge graph-related problems (and accompanying applications) for years and Contextualise is probably the most visible component of that work.

I have built a graph-based knowledge management system (https://github.com/brettkromkamp/contextualise) on top of SQLite. It runs great. Also, from a management point of view (e.g., deployments, backups) its ease of use is second to none. I migrated the application from PostgreSQL (which is also a great RDBMS) to SQLite and I haven’t looked back.

Contextualise is a simple but effective tool particularly suited for organising information-heavy projects and activities consisting of unstructured and widely diverse data and information resources: https://github.com/brettkromkamp/contextualise. Contextualise's main dependency is TopicDB, an open source topic maps-based graph store implemented in Python. The Contextualise web application is implemented with the Flask framework.

Forgot to provide the link to the actual GitHub repo: https://github.com/brettkromkamp/contextualise

I have a relatively popular Flask application in production: Contextualise (https://contextualise.dev). It’s an open source project, so you can take a look at the code base and hopefully learn something of use: https://github.com/brettkromkamp/contextualise
