@Wander @fediverse neat. sounds a bit like dn42, only federated and I am guessing without transit/routing to other users you aren't directly peered with?
@nysepho @fediverse there would be routing without being peered directly by delegating your endpoint to another peer you trust (this can create an infinitely long routing chain depending on where you latch on so to speak, but you would be in control)
Routing would be the hard bit I expect.. if the person you were communicating was 10 hops away how to find the route? Things like BGP do that naturally, but really you don't want to burden potentially nontechnical users with BGP..
