Which decentralized products _would_ you use day to day if they existed? Why?

[Steve Phillips]

This question is similar to the one asked along the right-hand panel at http://redecentralize.org/ , but I'm especially curious as to why people want these apps decentralized.

Surely Francis, Irina, and Ross have thought of some examples, too!

Personally, I would use Twitter if it were decentralized. And actually I
use Twister. :-)

But I think the tool itself is irrelevant. I want to be social, so I ask
myself: Where are my friends? Where is my audience?

If it is not a hoax even turkish army officers used Whatsapp to organize
their coup. Was bitmessage too slow? Or did they just use what everybody
uses?

I blogged about my questions. Sorry no good answers.

I think "critical" things like code repos would benefit most from being decentralized, so I guess something like git but completely decentralized. Websites is the bulk of the internet, so it would be very interesting to see more on decentralized self-publishing platforms. For personal use, cross-platform secure/private/anon messaging and calls would be fantastic.
