<- WIKI LIST
Decentralize All Things
Introduction
Welcome to SaidIt's Decentralize-All-Things wiki upon which good things will follow.
This editable wiki page seems similar to a comment but for anyone to edit and contribute, including internal links (including the entire SaidIt html path) and external links to other websites.
If this wiki list grows to unwieldy we may use the uncensored InfoGalactic.com wiki to add and curate content or do my own or group open-wiki-projects in coordination with this SaidIt voting discussion forum.
I've configured this Decentralize-All-Things subsaidit to my best abilities on my Brave browser. If you see any anomalies or ways I can improve it I'd be eternally grateful if you let me know at /u/JasonCarswell . Thanks in advance.

Alternatives to consider:
Please feel free to comment for full disclosure on the pros and cons.
Further, there's no shortage of WP: cryptocurrencies as this WP: limited list attests. (Wikipedia has a war on against cryptos for fear of scams, yet support all the myths of the establishment and their giant scams). There's a dedicated subsaidit at /s/cryptocurrency to discuss this specifically.
Paywall alternatives list
Ryan Dawson has gone through hell being censored.
In his interview with the Halsey News Network "Radio Free America (Episode 268): Social Censorship" (2019-03-04) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oq_2W8_oDHE at around 1:40:00 they discuss who he's ruled out and the solution he goes with now. He finally set up a paywall through Cleeng after trying Muvi and Wistia and other stuff.

Self hosting guide
Some options for exposing your local services to the internet include:
- A dynamic DNS service like http://www.duckdns.org (free)
- must configure port forwarding on your router
- Paid proxy services
- Self-hosted proxy services
- Need a second server with a static ip address, e,g, a cheap VPS
- https://github.com/fatedier/frp
- https://github.com/pagekite/PyPagekite
Domain names can be pointed to your services by configuring their CNAME
