Patchwork looks great. But it's an old-school distributed/federated app in the vein of IRC or XMPP, right?
The definition of a "dApp" these days seems to require blockchain, either for storage or for a token ecosystem. This co-opting of the word "distributed" is unfortunate but probably as difficult to fix at this point as the misuse of "crypto".
