I dunno about self hosting on your machine but I’m not opposed to an idea where if you have files to share on a server, you have to provide storage for parts of other files up to a certain percent of the space you use. Or, something like… you have 20gb, you’re only using 5gb, so 15gb are free for the network. If you start using more locally, it opens up space for you to use by clearing shared files. If that makes sense?

Tenfingers is roughly: you want the network to share your data, then you have to share data for the network.

So for example you share 50MB of data for a large overshare for your 5MB web page.

What if you don’t have the 10x space when it gets big?

[-] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 hour ago

Well, then you have to make your website smaller, or extend your sharing space, or lower the oversharing.

It's not intended for (nothing forbids it though) very large data sharing, more a personal sharing space.

In the same vein yes, like a modern IPFS with more capabilities.

Unused disk space to be used as a shared, distributed LRU cache.

Interesting but tenfingers is not made for that use case.

[-] scott@lem.free.as 2 points 15 hours ago

You're right. I was simply trying to articulate what the PP wrote.

LRU cache

Wonder what the performance of a fibonacci sequence is there. 😄
