Freenet

What it does

Imagine if the internet wasn't controlled by a handful of giant corporations. Freenet is a platform for building applications that run on a peer-to-peer network instead of centralized servers. That means no cloud provider, app store, or platform owner gets to decide whether your application continues to exist.

  Freenet, a peer-to-peer platform for decentralized appsMay 2026 · freenet.org · ▲390

  For the past 5 years or so I've been working on a ground-up redesign of Freenet, my peer-to-peer project from the early 2000s (now renamed Hyphanet).

  connet – A P2P reverse proxy with NAT traversal2025 · github.com · ▲130

  Over the past couple of months, I've been working on connet. At this point, it is working pretty smoothly (in what I use it for), so I wanted to share it with more people and see what they think. I know many other similar/reverse proxy solutions exist - like https://github.com/fatedier/frp, https://github.com/rapiz1/rathole, and a bunch more you can find at https://github.com/anderspitman/awesome-tunneling.

  Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481

  Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
