I read the other day about a protocol called Gemini.

It might fit what you are looking for, if you goal is just to publish interesting content, or get the experience learning something new and different, but not for you if you want to monetize.

It is an alternate to the internet. You can self host there, also, but they have built Gemini to be unable to support applications, bots, malware etc… it goes much deeper, if you are curious, you should read, I am fascinated.

It might be.

I am surrounded by kind, decent people, but same. They don’t think about, or engage in, these sorts of thoughts, and I try. They just shrug and say their little impact, isn’t enough of an impact to try. Meanwhile, I am over here having a daily existential crisis about all the stupid packaging on my second hand jeans.
