With LibreWeb I tried to go this route, using IPFS protocol. But like I mention above, IPFS is not as decentralized by design as people might think. People still need to download the content first and hosting a node.. And then ALSO pin the content.. It's not great. And look-up takes way too long as well with their DHT look-up.
Well... it's not really designed for that use case, so yeah you'll have to deal with issues like that. For interplanetary file transfers, that's acceptable.
I'm searching for better alternatives, ideas are welcome.
Probably the closest thing would be an activitypub blog or static site service.
ActivityPub is still using centralized DNS. I'm talking about a decentralized Web. And no, activitypub doesn't scale as good.
