TL;DR: I'm not a programmer. I'm a sysadmin with a dream: a distributed forum database with no owner, no single point of failure, client-side filtering (like VLANs for content), and optional Nostr/ZeroNet/Atlas transport.

What exists: database replicated across nodes, each node chooses what to store and what filters to apply. Moderation = subscribing to trusted filters. No crypto required.

What I need: reality check, technical feasibility analysis, database schema advice, prototype devs (PHP/Go/Rust), testers.

What I offer: small budget ($100-200/mo for specific tasks), domain/hosting funding, endless gratitude.

Please be brutal. I can take it.
