     @menherahair In hindsight I should've used one, but for whatever reason, I didn't. I've used Jekyll before, but for some other website.

     As for RSS, I could handwrite the feed. I do have a twtxt feed on my site.

     The only other crypto aspect of ZeroNet, besides the .bit domains was that every ZeroNet site also acted as a Bitcoin wallet that you could donate to.

     >I even bought a namecoin domain for my little zeronet site that may or may not still exist somewhere.

     It probably still exists as long as at least one person is still seeding it. Last time I've actually checked ZeroNet was a couple of years ago (after the 08chan incident). I could still access some obscure sites on there. I thought that they would be gone.

     Apparently, someone is forking ZeroNet right now, but is actually using a different protocol this time, so basically the old sites won't be compatible with the new ones anymore, at least that's what I think will happen. The original ZeroNet was built on-top of BitTorrent. People were convincing NoFish to use IPFS instead, but that never happened.

     @xianc78 I thought the concept of websites as a "capsule" that was downloaded and deployed locally for dynamic content was the most interesting aspect of zeronet. The half-baked crypto angle only hurt the idea, as implemented, I think. Integration with namecoin was neat, though! I even bought a namecoin domain for my little zeronet site that may or may not still exist somewhere. 😂

     @mitchconner No. I was having another conversation with @caekislove mentioning a fork of the project.

     Nope, the article you shared says the project died in 2019. I just shared with you an active fork.

     @Moon @xianc78 It doesn't work. All the links are broken. Maybe it's me. I dunno. I've tried to make it work but it just doesn't.

     @caekislove @xianc78 the difference is ipfs is server to server and bt is peer to peer so its easier to share via bt

     @xianc78 Good call by nofish since IPFS still doesn't work outside laboratory conditions. Bittorrent is proven technology.
