Is there much different to WriteFreely?
e.g. something like Bandwagon should be possible unter HZ with not that much effort also.
For starters, WriteFreely offers a clean blogging design on public instances. No need to self-host both your main and your clones.
artist, title, release date, genre, composer(s), lyricist(s), comments etc. etc) and joining audio files into albums, complete with album and album artist tags.
??
With the right installed theme every HZ Hub could look like a standard WriteFreely blog and offer even a federated commend function.
Well the whole purpose of the Fediverse is decentralized hubs or nodes (federated). So if we have learned anything so far, it is that centralized information is not a good strategy. It introduces a huge point of failure, or attack vectors, or big brother take downs.
Peer to peer (P2P) protocol has redundancy built in, so backups are easily available. Taking down one or several servers does nothing to slow down the Fediverse. Information or data is retained no matter what happens.
Hmm... ?? sure we are talking about hubs/servers with accounts in a decentralized network...
the question is now how you as an individual want to organize your self with accounts and hub.
i would say ideally everyone would have ONE hub for himself which federates to all others out there...
now if more and more services are now developed for all different kind of servers this ideal will not work at all any more...
?? P2P is a concept which is not really part of the FEDI world jet. FEDI works with servers not with lokal Apps/installations. p2p would maybe work in a hybrid style together wich servers... Scuttlebutt/Ssb has pubs - or like: if everybody would have an own FEDI hub/sever it would be kind of P2P. :-)

The Fediverse should be more like the Facebook Platform (lots of client apps using the same social graph) rather than the Apple App Store (a bunch of one-feature apps that have to bootstrap their own social network each time).
We'll get there. Most servers already support the read-only aspect of the ActivityPub API pretty well. Implementing the write-only part is actually pretty straightforward. A ratchet process of clients and servers.
What I would like to see is OpenWebAuth adopted widely so I can log in with the same identity.
i personally like the idea to have it all under one hut
If I have understood correctly, this is precisely the aim of the IndieWeb movement.
After all, it is hard to have social freedom if you don't have financial freedom.
With Hubzilla, you can have your identity located on multiple servers at the same time by cloning it, which serves as a backup and also as a means of moving to another server.
You still have a home base, which is a specific server, but you can change that home base at any time.
did you had a look at nostr?
For me in the future digital networking is like being able to speak and act.
I do not want to be forced to become a customer for doing so.
After all, it is hard to have social freedom if you don't have financial freedom.
Ideally your home would be on your device as an app.
Which becomes difficult if you have more than one digital end-user device.
Also, as I've already said, 100% serverless peer-to-peer requires your end-user device to take over the same tasks that a server is doing now.
The issue is whether you want "always on" connectivity. For that, you need a server that can be reached 24/7 via the internet. But, if you are okay with a delay, there is Secure Scuttlebutt (SSB), which is a peer-to-peer communications protocol.
Would you not be able run the app on all your devices as a clone..?
Or, as you've written, it'd require sync servers of some sort somewhere.
The entire purpose of SSB is to allow social communications in regions where there are spotty internet connections, or on the open sea.
