decentralized-web The Absolute State of Decentralized Web Compatibility in 2020: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly 6E03tbU6L5w0IyjMi7yF English keynote [decentralization] [yutyo maciej] false

The Web was free and decentralized when it was invented by Tim Berners-Lee in March 12, 1989. But today, the Web that no one could own is under the feudal invasion of big IT companies that own many of the servers existing in the world.

What is that buzz about decentralization?

The Web was free and decentralized when it was invented by Tim Berners-Lee in March 12, 1989. But today, the Web that no one could own is under the feudal invasion of big IT companies that own many of the servers existing in the world.

What can we do/ are we doing about it?

As a response to that problem that threatens the solidarity of the Web, there have been many projects going on. I am gonna talk about those projects, showing several examples of centralised, federative and decentralized ongoing/abandoned Web projects and making a conversation about what we can do more.
