If you want a federated platform where no players can get too big,

Big, small, whatever.

Nobody can get a monopoly this way.

I'm not against success if/when it occurs, even if it becomes grand via authentic merit (rather than market manipulation, suppression, monopolization, etc). More importantly, we need to foster uncensored freedom of speech and freedom of reach - along with individuals' freedom to filter and aggregate their own content.

The challenge lies in making it as easy to set up as a subcommunity on Reddit or this site. They can do it in just a few clicks.

I don't understand. A sub for development, for the app, for what?

Perhaps something that's installed by copying a few files to a (possibly free) shared hosting website and running a PHP script will work.

I don't know what any of this means. There is no shortage of places to host free files (GitHub, etc) or folks that would host them (many on SaidIt too). Depends what the script does.

If people can torrent huge movies, they should certainly be able to share text, links, and images. It seems like existing software elements just need to be merged into a bold new Frankenstein.

Zombit?
