I feel very similar with regard to blockchains, however I didn’t want to throw the baby out with the bathwater. I think (or rather hope) that there are some cryptocurrencies/blockchains that are actually useful/interesting to discuss. Certainly agreeing with you though.
I’ve an account on dbzer0 too and often lurk there as well, however I wasn’t sure about its longevity given the amount of piracy-related activity going on there.

### What
All things and everything about decentralization: news, announcements, proposals, and discussions about decentralized apps, protocols and communities.
- decentralized web (dweb)
- peer-to-peer (P2P)
- file-sharing (_e.g._, BitTorrent, IPFS, and Gnutella)
- self-hosting
- federation (_e.g._, ActivityPub/Fediverse and Bluesky)
- federated apps (_e.g._, Mastodon, Lemmy, and Pixelfed)
- cryptocurrencies (_e.g._, Bitcoin and Ethereum)
### Why
I've noticed that although a lot of people are interested in decentralization, there aren't many forums where people can share news and discuss and develop projects together. Reddit used to have [/r/Rad_Decentralization](https://old.reddit.com/r/rad_decentralization), [/r/DarknetPlan](https://old.reddit.com/r/darknetplan/) and so on but the 2023 Reddit API controversy was the the final nail in their coffin.
Interesting, not sure why. Try the following:
