> People don’t want to run their own servers, and never will.

What if the server is their phone and the service is an app that they install?

The problem that I personally have with web3 is that nobody seems to be building the infrastructure to accommodate this sort of setup, which the article sort of touched on. But I disagree that people will never want this. I think that there’s a lot of will and understanding among the average non-technical internet user that they don’t host their own services and I think they’d like to be a part of a distributed system, if there was a platform that made it possible.

But that’s not ethereum. IPFS and wireguard are closer to realizations of this.
