About Junkmesh

Junkmesh turns any x86 machine — especially the retired laptop in your cupboard — into a node of a fully decentralised storage cloud. Yggdrasil provides an encrypted global mesh with no coordinator; Garage replicates your data across the nodes; a tiny exporter tells your monitoring what's going on. Everything runs as plain Alpine Linux services from one installable ISO. No containers, no cloud account, no one in charge.

• Why Junkmesh

  What "truly decentralised" means, what Nebula's CA and lighthouses cost Junk Net, and the trade Junkmesh makes instead.

• Junkmesh vs Junk Net

  Same hardware philosophy, same storage engine, opposite answers to "who's in charge?".

• FAQ

  Encryption, NAT, dead nodes, hardware requirements, and why hosting a node is the only way in.

• Roadmap

  What works today, and the open research questions — collective cluster admission, mesh-native discovery, ARM images.
