And he links to these docs: https://developer.tbd.website/docs/web5/build/decentralized-web-nodes/web5-connect/
Finally, he says:
Next up, I will be launching a DWeb app I've been writing that exercises the full range of DWeb capabilities. It's a consumer app I hope devs and average users alike can try to provide us feedback on all aspects of the Web5 platform. Join us in building DWeb apps of your own!
Having a hard time following the docs for a simple understanding, and I’m curious how this works:
What is your first impression of this and how easy do you think it could be for the average person to run and work a DWN without a web server or port forwarding etc?
I haven't read the docs yet so my only impressions are these:
- csuwildcat is knowledgeable/credible on the topic of decentralization
- he says dwn relays are better than nostr relays for most purposes
- I want to check it out to see if I agree but I am busy right now
