Distributed Hosting (self.selfhosted)

Hi all - So I posted about distributed hosting yesterday. I wrote up some thoughts on how I think it could work, and I'm planning to start work on it -- if anyone has feedback on my proposal, or wants to get involved to help, 100% let me know as I'd love to hear.

I got a spare raspberry pi set up as a server. I can use that to host stuff and am okay in programming (not rust though). Let me know if I can be of assistance in anyway. Be happy to help with this effort

Yes, absolutely! Sorry for the silence... I was working on code with a little bit expanded scope from the original project, but it's shaping up to be maybe within a week or two something that could actually be tested. You can read the update about the current state of things; in it I talk about having a test instance set up, and wanting to set up proxy caches for it to be able to test the whole system in real-world functioning. The code's not ready yet, but maybe if in a couple weeks you still want to help with testing, I can help you get a proxy node set up on your Pi and then that can form part of the initial proof-of-concept on that testbed server?

For sure and no worries about the delay in response. I am out on vacation but when I get back, I can lend help set up a proxy node. Maybe set it up as a container on docker
