People who want near-perfect distribution of power often talk about the serverless model. It's sounds like it might work for something like e-mail, but I don't see how it's possible for something like Lemmy. This comment it cached on every instance with one person who follows it.
Atm, keeping Lemmy going for a couple of days might require 50 Gigabytes and lots of bandwidth. If you put that on a mobile phone, it'll be a 50 Gig app, which will drain all your data in minutes.
But I think chatboards work well with servers, so it doesn't seem like a problem.
