   How do we make it easier for "everyone else," the "normies," all those "regular" folk who just want to get online, how do we reduce the friction required to get them to make their own little corners of the web? How do we make the #IndieWeb easier? How do we make the #WebRevival more convenient?

     @garrett so many web tools have seperate authoring and preview modes. we need more tools to enable direct interaction, and less fussing about with command lines, file transfer protocols, and galaxy brain “paradigms”

     make it so people don't need to rely on an abusive enshittifier to maintain their web sites. make the next user-centered web so that web (or maybe gemini) sites can be published from users' own devices, whether through Tor onion services, Freenet or IPFS, that next-gen browsers ought to be able to access transparently, and that get automatically replicated across other user's devices, and/or to select friend's devices, in peer-to-peer fashion. make it so that social networks work in a similar fashion, so that users can run their own instances out of their own devices, under their own control, again without having to rely on third parties to run "servers" for them, and instead relying on solid peer-to-peer replication tech to provide stable storage for such distributed apps to build upon
     
     see how GNU Jami runs with a single account replicated across multiple devices for a great example of how this can work, and picture that being extended/used to publish web sites, host social media nodes, publish software, ... there's a slightly outdated view thereof drafted up at https://www.fsfla.org/blogs/lxo/draft/decent-computing
