Awesome that you opened a github ticket. Most people just complain on forums/reddit/lemmy.

And yes i agree with you, there are some stuff that can be more user friendly and less confusing.

I didn’t make that issue sorry, but hey you aren’t using Gnutella so even? xD

is it like emule ?

Using lemmy as example, when i request posts from another server, my server will request only those posts. It won't request everything. Do you see the difference?

That's just how activitypub works because the alternative would be too costly. But you could design a federation system that replicates everything.

A precise description is:
Usenet is a distributed system where servers peer with each other to replicate articles (P2P at the server layer), while users interact in a client–server manner with their chosen news provider.

Even your perplexity output admits that it's not fully P2P like bittorrent. And if we count "partial P2P", then activitypub would also count since even selective replication, is some amount of replication, and tbus "partial P2P"

Even your perplexity output admits that it’s not fully P2P like bittorrent. And if we count “partial P2P”, then activitypub would also count since even selective replication, is some amount of replication, and tbus “partial P2P”

I wrote p2p at server level. Ofcourse it is not 100% p2p, if it was full p2p then it would be just p2p. usenet is p2p at server level, and you have the references above to prove it (you don't need to trust me).

I stumbled upon it this weekend, it's impressive!
Looks like the original IPFS vision: uniquely identifiable files. Much more simple: no custom DHT, no block identifier, just blake3 CIDs and Mainline DHT. So less potential scalability issues, less protocol complexity, less swarm fragmentation. And written is rust. https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh-share/
