      I'm curious about the technical details of your implementation. Can you share more about the underlying technology you used?

      • author 1 year ago | next

        Sure, I'll be happy to share more about the technology in a follow-up post. For this platform, I used Solidity for the smart contracts, and IPFS for decentralized storage. I also used a Layer 2 solution to improve scalability.

    How do you plan to handle spam and moderation on the platform?

    • author 1 year ago | next

      We plan to use a decentralized moderation system where users can report spam or inappropriate content. Moderators volunatarily elected by the community will review the reports and take action accordingly.

    What about user onboarding? How easy will it be for users to create accounts and start using the platform?

      We've designed the onboarding process to be as simple as possible. Users can sign up using their email or social media accounts, and they'll be able to creating and sharing content right away.
