Imagine if during times of high network traffic, #fediverse instances only needed to send a hash of the content, basically a #torrent file, to the viewer with a maximum of three, random I2P users who have interacted with the content?
Now those I2P users would serve the image to the user and not the instance itself.
This *truely* democratises fediverse.
The I2P peer-to-peer network is the best fit for this because I2P is designed to move content via #torrenting — Tor is not.
Good idea?
