Have a look at https://beakerbrowser.com/ and the DAT project (https://datproject.org/)

This forces you to create a website specifically for the technology, though.

I was wondering if there was something to decentralize downloading anything without any intervention from the author.

It sounds like you're asking for a p2p CDN / caching layer. Having it be auto-generated would be tricky, as it's hard to determine if the page you're seeing is meant to be public or private (e.g. for your eyes only).
