Plebbit is a fully peer-to-peer, decentralized alternative to Reddit Built on IPFS that doesn’t rely on centralized servers or federated instances like Lemmy or Mastodon. Instead of traditional infrastructure, .No single point of failure, no global mods with ultimate control, no admin backdoors.
In theory, this should mean true censorship resistance and user ownership of content. Communities (subplebbs) are moderated locally with cryptographic keys, and moderation actions are transparent and accountable. It’s a different model than just “federated social media” this is more like BitTorrent for discussion forums.
Do you think a system like this can scale in practice?
Can it maintain quality discussions without centralized moderation?
Will regular users adopt something this technical?
Is it really more decentralized than alternatives, or just differently centralized?
Last time I checked, IPFS was not censorship resistant.
How so? If you're running your node it is.
in what way can it be censored?
