Comment on Just discovered decentralized cloud service Flux, while I was looking into Truth Social/Rumble Cloud... what a great idea !

  Seems the image ‘approval’ is only for their own server/node

  Ok that sounds more useful then.

    Ok. Sorry again. I will try it out myself, because I am reading conflicting messages on Reddit etc.

    If anything can be hosted, I should be able to run random hello world images or something.

    I still also need to understand how the discovery of other nodes works... legal liabilities (what if someone puts CP on my node ?) etc

      Some variation Dijkstra's algorithm like all networks use. Centralized Trackers. Maybe in combination with some kinda Distributed hash table to keep it working if the trackers are unreachable.

        I meant the Trackers.... my big problem as I mentioned is port forwarding. I was wondering if it was possible to make your own alt-Flux network and how the trackers would be set up.
