Pubky & Pears both use a (different) DHT to store key info, but that is probably the only similarity.
We use the largest network on the internet as verifiable DNS to achieve every key use case you could think of, putting users totally in control no matter who hosts their data.
Pears uses Hyperswarm DHT to locate append-logs that can have lazy replication.
These are quite distinct use cases, which is why we don't use Hyperswarm and why they don't use Mainline DHT.
