Watching Jack build a peer-to-peer chat app in a weekend—with intention, humility, and curiosity—is a powerful reminder of what this moment is really about.

Not just new protocols.

Not just decentralization.

But reclaiming the raw, beautiful possibility of the internet.

Side group chats in classrooms. Airplanes. Town squares.

Anonymous, local, human.

It’s not nostalgia—it’s a vision for reconnection in a world that’s been optimized into silence.

As AI reshapes how we build, may we remember why we build:

To speak freely. To stay close. To belong again.

Props to those still dreaming in public.

We need you.

We need this.
