Could a front-end app be provided via IPFS? That way we wouldn't have to rely on using servers.
Edit: I was silly, I missed the part where you mentioned IPFS... Must go to bed now. 😴
Edit2: It'd be an interesting experiment to have Hive frontends written for Ethereum, Cardano and EOS. But since I am not a programmer that will likely not happen any time soon.
Certainly. Would want to make use of IPNS for updating the front-end code every once and awhile. Still would need to have an API to hook into for fetching post content, account info, etc. So can't completely remove the need for a server, but can make the reliance on one significantly less.
You mean hosted on Ethereum and Cardano?
Hosted or run on them, whichever works the best.
After having a good night's sleep a thought came to me, that a whole Hive appstore could be decentralized using existing technologies.
