Can elaborate? You saying that releasing and more importantly finding/verifying/downloading the new releases is tricky, in decentralized manner, right?
I'm saying that it is right now possible with existing software to develop code decentrally with git and distribute it decentrally with torrent. It's all possible right now. But very few people do it. And things like what you suggested came up multiple times in the last years in the community. And every time people are dismissive because it's already possible. But that does not change the fact that few people do so.

Got it. Very good point. Its already possible, but people don't care (don't use it).
Any thoughts on why? Is it bad idea? Or is it too complicated right now?
I believe the reason for this could be either a/ censorship resistance (very rarely needed), or b/ faster innovation (like what's happening in nostr client apps right now because the cost of switching is so low), or both.
