hypercore protocol and keet.io

There's been some buzz today around a new alpha P2P system called keet:

https://keet.io/

Behind the scenes is the hypercore protocol

https://hypercore-protocol.org/guides/

It works on the concept of reading and writing to hyperdrives, with
commands such as:

hyp drive ls
hyp drive mkdir
hyp drive rmdir
hyp drive cat
hyp drive put
hyp drive rm
hyp drive diff
hyp drive sync
hyp drive http

Which allow files to be change locally and over the network, plus ability
to attach an HTTP interface

Seems to be in early stages, but I have test the keet app which you can
download.  While it is still in alpha, the group chat, sharing, video chat
and screen sharing impressed me quite a bit.

Could be a drop in replacement for zoom, telegram, signal, skype, whatsapp
at some point in the future.  Maybe.

Perhaps a protocol to watch for the future.
