Has anyone actually built/tried any of their designs? I'd like to know more and perhaps get involved.

I'm really glad that you're enjoying Linux, and I'm doubly glad that your hospital found a solution to keep their system running smoothly!

I have an upcoming article about this but: I just slapped together a older desktop machine with a large HDD and made it network accessible via my local network. Add Kiwix and a few other things and you're most of the way there. The difficulty is getting people to use it.

Yes it is and it does my heart good to find it. Thank you all so very much.

Facebook has always been first and foremost an advertising platform, and they went where the money is. Some of that's the automated algorithms, some of that is deliberate corporate informationeering.

I offer some thoughts on the decline and fall of the internet here, and I think it's germane to this discussion: https://michaelhjenkins.substack.com/p/visions-of-a-post-apocalyptic-internet?r=26iex9&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&triedRedirect=true

Oh wow, thank you for bringing this to my attention. I'm really glad to know folks are working in this direction!
