Look at automating deployment to digital ocean #10

It looks like it is necessary to have a server if we use any of the existing p2p protocols -- ipfs/libp2p or ssb

See ssb-db2 and ssb-browser-core

[ ] research how you can automate deployment to digital ocean, so that one push to main = new deployment
- [ ] github actions
[ ] how to docker? why docker?
[ ] how to keep it running at all times?
[ ] do you want to create a new droplet on each deploy? or do you ssh to an existing droplet and then pull the new git code

But does this really help us? This allows us to use traditional sbot on a remote server, but there is still not a local DB b/c this is running in a browser. We could potentially use a remote-only write strategy, as in ssc-flume. But would that help much?

Drawback is data is not more local; it's still a remote-first situation

Good news is that existing infrastructure for replication amongst servers works
