    Well, one question is how it’d be paid for. You can’t really have a federated payment provider, can you?

    So would you have to pay for each separate server somehow, gathering them up like streaming service subscriptions?

      Someone smarter than me will need to figure that out. I’m a lowly software engineer, not a computer scientist.

        Hey, doesn’t mean you can’t aspire to be a systems architect :D

      Unfortunately crypto bros absolutely ruined crypto for everything it could’ve been
