Heey have you heard of the tenfingers sharing protocol? It makes away with both DNS, registrars and hosting platforms.
You need to open a port to the internet from your PC though, so people don't seem to like that/be able to do that/have a provider letting them, so I'm working on a workaround for thar so it'll be just fire and forget, no configuration.
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?
