I would be interested in a project like this if it were a distributed network.

It's important to ensure that accumulated community knowledge will survive, and conversations can continue, when an instance dies or becomes intolerable. (Reddit and Stack Exchange have recently brought this into sharp focus.) It's so important that I no longer contribute to sites like this unless they provide those assurances.

So I hope this one develops into something that meets that need.

I'd also like to see something like this for the Internet Archive. Essentially a federated archive.

Yeah, but they're storing so much data only orgs with a lot of funding could participate, so it'd still be in the hands of wealthy parties.
