At the same time, I watched Reddit's self-hosted community – whose members are well-known for writing off projects at the first sight of emojis – blindly dive headfirst into Hypermind, a new peer-to-peer app for discovering and counting other users also deploying the app (yes, you read that correctly).

I had the same reaction.

    The High-Availability Solution to a Problem That Doesn't Exist.

    "You need a service that:

    • Does absolutely nothing useful.
    • Uses "Decentralized" and "P2P" in the description.
    • Makes a number go up on a screen.

    Enter Hypermind."

    They sure have a sense of humor though :)

    Sure. I mean, it apparently does exactly what they describe. Maybe someone will fork it into something useful. Seems to me it could be a basis for something to be built on. Damn site better than anything I've managed to code, so I can't knock it too much. LOL
