Hmmm. Decentralized doesn't mean distributed. It means that there isn't a center hub. PHP has proven to be a highly-decentralizing force because it is used to generate custom webpages, that can be easily maintained, like with Wordpress or October CMS. This is a command-line interface to generate publications, like books. It's meant to be installed on a PC and handle large files from the hard drive. Most software applications are not social media. image

remember that was a caveat I included in the first message > if you want a web frontend to use nostr, be decentralized (i.e. the server is not the tool contacting the websockets) and you don't assume every user is gonna self-host the client, there's no way around that. in the case you're talking about every user is going to "self-host" (tho more like "run") your application, so you're not a centralizing force!

Your picture is about Centralized, Federated (not Decentralized), Distributed. WordPress is Centralized, but it is possible connect to Federated network, and send data to Decentralized, but it will never be a decentralized solution. image
