I say the day Mozilla bends the knee to advertisers and do what Chrome did by phasing out ad-blockers with Firefox. That'll be the day when I look around my apartment and realize "man, I need to start getting into some hobbies now."

Realistically i dont think the internet is going anywhere. But in the future i may spend less time on it.

However some freinds have been building a meshnet (not meshtastic) thats just a bunch of house nodes. Its been fun and theres already tangable benifits:

  1. No wierd pings from 3rd parties
  2. We host whatever we want
  3. We pay next to nothing
  4. No survalance
  5. Early internet vibes
  6. No copyright

Its pretty much the old internet but with housevto house. Im loving it.

    So ive wanted to try this. How do you get started on it? Just a friend centric small internet would be awesome. Maybe with an irc server too.

    Tailscale ?
