Federated browsers

That's literally just regular browsers, you can interact with any one of billions of webservers

Federated github

Git is federated by nature, you can add as many remotes as you wish and push/pull to all of them. Add in a mailing list for issue tracking and "pull requests" (patch submissions) and you're golden. You can look up sourcehut to self-host a well-integrated combination of the two.

Federated hosting providers

Not sure what exactly you mean by this but maybe take a look at IPFS, although it's more P2P then federation.

Federated internet

Internet is already fairly federated by nature - most commonly used protocols in the OSI stack are open and you can host your own components of critical infrastructure. Getting others to interact with them might be difficult due to security & privacy issues.

We have federated countries

(well... its more like... confederated rather than federated ¯_(ツ)_/¯)

And there's Brair there are Brair Public Forums. There is no censorship. But activity is quite dead. Expect to see a post every month, or longer.

Not federated, but distrubuted github https://radicle.xyz/

federated browser

Do you mean something like CENO Browser and TOR Browser?

If you want decentralized private messaging see https://delta.chat/

Peertube (Youtube-like) and Loops (Tiktok-like) and Pixelfed (Instagram-like Photosharing service) are growing.

This is a fun thing I found, wish they had an android app or something.

Federated Github? That's... git.

Federated browsers? Federated hosting providers?

I'm beginning to think you might not fully understand what federated means.

Since Git can already be federated (no MS GitHub required), take a look at Darcs & Pijul for a better version control model based on Patch Theory. Tooling needs help, but fundamentals are sound.

Everything in the XMPP world is worth checking out. Movim is one of the more interesting projects bring a social media option to the platform & pushing boundaries for clients that is cool to see—as well as Libervia for setting up communities.

What are some cool projects I need to know about?

Email, usenet

How about a federated dildo.

There’s only like 20 some federated projects. I recommend you read into FOSS, self hosting, and Linux as this is what most of us are into and is along the same lines

Internet is already federated, its just called peering instead?

Forgejo is working on federated github.

A few I've been interested in.

• I just saw this project literally today, a federated search engine using web rings - https://gitlab.com/Doomsdayrs/mengzi
• Ibis is a federated wiki by the Lemmy dev - https://github.com/Nutomic/ibis
• WriteFreely is a simple federated blog designed around writing - https://github.com/writefreely/writefreely
• Funkwhale for music hosting (I'm sure I heard rumours about it stopping development but it still seems active?) - https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale

One I'm surprised I haven't seen (although might inappropriate for the standard, no idea) is an activitypub messenging service like Matrix

I think Hyphanet is the closest you can get to federated hosting provider/Internet

There can be no federated browser though, since browser is just an app installed locally on your device which renders hypertext (HTML, CSS, JS and other tech) on your screen

We need a way to make self hosting super easy without needing additional infrastructure. Like use my account here with my broad spectrum of posts and comments as initial credentials for a distributed DNS name and certificate authority combined with a preconfigured ISO for a Rπ or similar hardware. The whole thing should not take manual intervention for automatically updating and should just run any federated services. Then places like LW are a bridge for people to migrate to their own distributed hosting even when they lack the interest or chops to self host. I don't see why we need to rely on the infrastructure of the old internet as a barrier to entry. I bet there are an order of magnitude more people that would toss a Rπ on their network and self host if it was made super easy, did not require manual intervention, and does not dump them into the spaghetti of networking, OS, and server configuration/security. Federated self hosting should be as simple as using a mobile app to save and view pictures or browse the internet.
