I absolutely agree. It’s just a messaging protocol. There’s no reason for all of these apps to be so niche.
And I agree that there’s no inherent reason that all of the current servers are terribad. Although it is strange that everyone interested in decentralization seems to also be interested in bad technology. Though of course this is slowly changing as reality sets in.
Communick sounds interesting. If you can really bundle all those apps together for that cheap? It makes me wonder why Element Matrix hosting is such a ripoff. Or why every other host is such a ripoff.
I agree about IPFS too. Specifically though I’d like to see Sia used as storage because it’s actually working today as opposed to Filecoin and all that which is not close to functioning yet.
