Alternative Internet is a curated directory of decentralized networks and technologies.
The project addresses the challenge of discovering and understanding the landscape of decentralized alternatives to centralized internet infrastructure and services. It works by maintaining an organized collection of projects, protocols, and platforms that pursue decentralization in various forms, making it easier for developers and researchers to explore what exists in this space rather than searching disparately across the web.
This resource suits developers evaluating decentralized approaches for their own projects, researchers studying the decentralization movement, and anyone seeking to understand alternatives to conventional centralized platforms. It functions as a reference guide rather than a tool for direct implementation, making it valuable during the research and planning phases of projects that aim to incorporate decentralized components or migrate away from centralized dependencies.
The project maintains a straightforward approach to curation and documentation, with contributions focused on identifying and cataloging relevant technologies rather than building complex tooling or infrastructure. Development activity centers on reviewing and integrating submissions that expand the collection's coverage of the decentralization landscape.
