  What do you think the hardest challenge would be?

  I’m a software developer but I don’t know too much about working with de-federated services, but I would be interested in working on a Stack for us, if it was feasible and maybe we got a few more devs on board.

    I’m working on a P2P Reddit alternative, but Reddit is basically a more complicated StackExchange. Here’s the mapping:

    • stack exchange site -> community/subreddit
    • question -> post
    • answer -> top level comment

    The missing bits:

    • selected answer - easy metadata to add
    • comment on question
    • bounty - is it needed?
    • tags - again, easy metadata to add

    Maybe I’ll consider forking my project once it’s ready and turn it into a QA site. The hardest part will be useful search due to its distributed nature.

      Thanks for this. I’m intrigued by your P2P Reddit too. Do you have a public GitHub where I can follow?

        Not yet, but I’ll post it somewhere here soon. I want to make sure the basics work properly first so people have a good experience on the first try. It’s pretty rough right now.

    What do you think the hardest challenge would be?

    I honestly wouldn’t know where to begin. Hardest to start would be learning enough of the problem space to identify p problems, but that’s just what’s in front of me
