The LBRY project is really interesting, I've been running their app for quite some time now and found some pretty good content on it (though rare).
I'll share the explanation given in their FAQ. Couldn't have written it better myself:
Their app is still in beta (I think) but I've not encountered any major bugs.

For most users, LBRY will be a place where they can find great videos, music, ebooks, and more. A vast digital library that is available on all of your devices. But LBRY is many components working together.
LBRY is first and foremost a new protocol that allows anyone to build apps that interact with digital content on the LBRY network. Apps built on the protocol allow creators to upload their work to the LBRY network of hosts (like BitTorrent), and set a price per stream or download (like iTunes) or give it away for free (like YouTube without ads).
What makes this all possible is the blockchain technology developed by the creator of Bitcoin. Do you have to understand any of this to use and enjoy LBRY? No. Does it still matter to users? Yes!

What I've found most interesting recently is d.tube
Decentralized tube
There's been tens of thousands of youtubers being censored by YouTube if they deemed their content offensive
They've succeeded to produce a decentralized YouTube which can be viewed with IPFS.
It's a project from the Steem community.
I wanted to invest significantly, but you shouldn't let your emotions guide your investments..
I'll still think about it, it's a good project.

Bisq's website is https://bisq.network/
You really can't keep Tor of the list when talking about P2P open source projects.

Thank you very much for your recommendation and correction. I updated the OP.
As it is corrected maybe you have something else to suggest

There are so many interesting concepts that it's hard to keep track of them all. I am not interested in the latest shitclonescam.
I hope to read interesting suggestions from you ivoryans.
- Bisq - https://bisq.network/ : it's a decentralized market place for cryptocurrency trading with escrow
- Bitmessage - www.bitmessage.org : it's a fully decentralized messaging and board system
- OpenBazaar - https://www.openbazaar.org/ : it's a fully decentralized market place
- Tor(browser) - https://www.torproject.org/ : one of the most popular ip faking software - very powerful hidden services
- Torrent - https://www.qbittorrent.org/ : it's a classic p2p torrent sharing system
I hope to read interesting suggestions from you ivoryans
