Love the idea of @urbit, but getting a planet started was seriously painful.
It's hard to see this gaining traction without a centralized service simplifying and abstracting everything (blasphemy, right?)

We're working on making it easier by (a) simplifying the interface and onboarding and (b) building tooling to make it really easy for anyone to run an Urbit host

Ideally, you pick a name and a host in a single form, and you're up and running in <2m.

You'll always be able to self-host Urbit, of course. And using a hosted Urbit is more like using a VPS than a centralized service.
