Would we still create Nebula today?

Honorable mention:
SuperHighway84 - more of a Usenet-inspired darknet, but I love the concept + the author's personal website:

Open source P2P alternative to Slack and Discord built on Tor and IPFS
While I do like the idea behind a P2P E2EE chat, I believe that unless you're willing to invest heavily into OrbitDB and IPFS, this project will stay niche at best.
The performance issues that come along with running OrbitDB/IPFS on a machine, let alone a mobile device, are still significant unfortunately. Adding Electron on top of what is already a heavy-weight application is probably going to make people's devices go brrrrr all the time. Not only that, but I would argue that for instant communication this stack might not be the best idea in terms of performance in first place.
Besides, the way IPFS has been (and still keeps) changing their dozens of libraries doesn't make development particularly smooth either. OrbitDB is always behind the latest IPFS version due to all these changes that are being introduced. Hence unless you're planning to allocate developer time on these two things as well, my guess is that you probably won't have too much fun with your back-end.
The integration with Tor is another thing that will likely be a time drain for developers, as other people here already pointed out, and that will lead to even more performance issues down the line.
Don't get me wrong, I really like the idea behind this project. However, I feel like the aspirations are unrealisticly high and the actual outcome might be realtively frustrating for the average end-user. Having that said, I would love my gut feeling to be proven wrong!

Ask HN: Is it time to resurrect a Usenet clone?
Someone created a Usenet-like thing on IPFS. https://github.com/mrusme/superhighway84
It's kind of dead. IIRC the dev put that on the back burner in favor of a new BBS-like app. https://github.com/mrusme/neonmodem

YouTube is seeming like a less and less viable platform... they should do the Patreon early-access and uncensored route
If anybody wanted to, anybody could start a RLM SuperHighway84 where we could just talk about RLM stuff all day.

We need a community archiving effort for YouTube channels. What's most crucial to protect and how do we get organised?
SuperHighway84 - Is this handy for organization? I like the usenet-style where it sorts itself if people use proper newsgroup names. If people used a 'youtube.channelname' format at least people could maybe scroll down to channels/videos people are talking about.

How do you/we share the stuff we hoard so those looking for stuff find it?
In my mind something like superhighway84 would be a better platform, then it's automatically organizing itself to some degree if people post in appropriate newsgroups. People looking for lost youtubers could post in youtube.channelName. That person looking for old VCDs & screeners could post in vcds.screeners.
- We have to prepare ourselves for the possibility that Reddit might try to pull a Tumblr soon

Showing off your hoard?
SuperHighway84 is like a usenet style board where people can create whatever newsgroups they want. Anybody could start a 'Datahoarder' highway.

10+ years of Sumo GONE
I like the idea of something like SuperHighway84 for talking about our collections. We could make one called YoutubeGraveyard or something. There's also r/DHExchange
