Decentralized projects like this always seem to end up having some kind of catch from what I've seen. A chink in the armor if you will.
I completely agree and have noticed the same thing.
Certain services claim to be decentralized, but they have a lynchpin like a traditional DNS server requirement, meaning the whole "decentralized" system fundamentally depends on a centralized service.
Personally, with my limited experience, I don't think it'll be possible to bootstrap the legacy internet (what we use today) to be fully decentralized. I believe we need a more novel approach to decentralized communication.
I've seen many ideas on decentralized networks and communications. Nothing has been fool proof so far and required so much collaboration to accomplish it might as well be impossible with current hardware and software.
