The 2010s have been plagued by a curse called the Server-Client architecture. In theory it’s very simple. You have a client that interacts with a server to achieve some kind of result.

I believe that in the future there will be much more self-sovereign computing, instead of delegated computing, and I will start by defining self-sovereign computing.

I define the term “Self-sovereign computing” as the act of not having to be dependant on a server, but only dependant on the willingness to execute something.

For example:

• Instead of being dependant on the Banking system to server you, you can run your own Ethereum node and compute self-sovereingly.

• Instead of being dependant on Facebook to serve you, you can run your own Farcaster hub and compute self-sovereignly.

• Instead of being dependant on Google to serve you, you can run your own Llama model and compute self-sovereingly.

Of course the Llama model will not 100% give you factually results all the time, but this could change in the future with advances in the field, and it does get the birthdays of famous US presidents correct.

I hope for a future where most of Internet traffic will be only bits that *actually* cannot be computed on your own. Everything else should be computed on your own computing device, either completely local or if its connected then through a P2P network of nodes. I want ethOS to have a node for messaging (Waku), one for money/smart contracts (Ethereum) and all other things that people use their phone for. And if people ask why they would want that, the answer is that its the best thing they will ever use.
