> Does anyone know of a similar article for web3 that excludes the blockchain?

Unfortunately in a lot of people minds web3 is "blockchain", just like crypto now just means blockchain, how hacker used to mean something else etc.

Not sure if the battle is completely lost, but I' wouldn't mind alternate name for such technologies.

As someone who used to spend some tile playing around with IPFS, and freenet, I find that unfortunate.
