I love the idea of decentralised apps for freedom of thought and privacy reasons.

One quibble with this claim: "with no server running 24/7 just to sync the data every once in a while, you avoid the production of the server in the first place and the energy it consumes when running."

Has anyone done any studies on this?

I personally wonder if a million book authors using Google Docs online on Chromebooks is going to be more energy efficient than a million local PC's running Libreoffice on Ubuntu?
