The quiet achiever.
Shipped Phase B of Decent Portfolio this weekend. The frontend now joins the IPFS swarm directly where browsers pull the OrbitDB database into a local replica and read positions without going through any server.
The "peer-to-peer" claim is real now: decent-portfolio.vercel.app @orbit_db

We had a lot of fun demoing @GeorgeMac510's Decent Portfolio during our last showcase.
If you are building something #poweredbyorbitdb we would love to showcase it.
You can reach out here, via our Matrix server, or drop us an email.
There are now a number of projects under development which are using OrbitDB.

Central applications can not be trusted. Only data owned and controlled by the creator can be fully private.
German 🇩🇪 police is buying and using data from the advertising industry.
This often includes location data, from which movement profiles of phones / their owners can be derived, reported by @netzpolitik_org:
"We asked all 16 state data protection authorities – none gave a specific legal basis for the use of commercial location data by the police."
OrbitDB is being used in real-world apps. The peer-to-peer revolution has started.
Shipped Voyager replication into Decent Portfolio today, my OrbitDB-backed crypto portfolio tracker now has its database living in two places instead of one. No more single point of failure.
Stack: OrbitDB + Helia + libp2p + Voyager.

Shipped v2 of Decent Portfolio this weekend, a crypto portfolio tracker where the database lives on @orbit_db and IPFS, not a central server.
Frontend on Vercel, OrbitDB on a local server reached via Cloudflare Tunnel. Multi-asset, live PnL, no Ngrok bill.

Be very careful of centralized applications. You DO NOT OWN THE DATA.
With an OrbtDB-powered app, local first and fully peer-to-peer, you own and fully control the data.
