Hey there and welcome! Just in the network and already looking at hosting stuff. Awesome!

If you're looking into making new pubs and stuff and you want to do something awesome development-wise... then you should perhaps take a peak at internet p2p. There are different ideas spreading around right now to have people connect to each other or pubs more directly.

A thread that has some devs with different ideas %t7betL4... .

Staltz actually build some super cool stuff into the ManyVerse to have people connect directly to each other using hash-tables (which is bit of a mix between centralized and decentralized I guess), you can find his project Repo here: https://gitlab.com/staltz/manyverse
