Can someone ELI5? What is the problem that this solves?

it looks sort of like a continuation of the beaker browser project. basically, a peer to peer browser that also serves content you have made to others using the browser. it's a cute idea.

As I understood, it's kind of an isolated fork of the internet (not the protocols but more surface-level stuff) with some changes. Considering how bloated and bad internet is nowadays, I guess it serves the purpose of being a niche alternative. I can't really understand the actual features and differences of it though so someone else will have to take a look into that.
