"Blockchain" and "decentralised" are not interchangeable words

[-] Artyom@lemm.ee 19 points 9 months ago

Yes, in the same way that federated and decentralized aren't interchangeable.

You're dodging the point that being in favour of decentralising doesn't mean being a blockchain bro

[-] gila@lemm.ee 8 points 9 months ago

So are you pushing a non-blockchain based decentralised ledger solution then, or did the point they were dodging actually just go over your head?

[-] irmoz@reddthat.com 17 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I'm not pushing anything, but yeah, anything other than blockchain

[-] gila@lemm.ee 9 points 9 months ago

Well, it's been about 15 years, and everything else we've found so far has been shitter. So just, give up on decentralisation I guess?
