Great work! I'm curious, how did you handle data replication across nodes in the decentralized network?
user1 5 months ago next
That's interesting, I wonder how the system's performance was impacted by using that protocol?
user1 5 months ago next
Hmm, I see. Were there any specific challenges implementing that protocol in a decentralized environment?

How did you deal with spam and phishing accounts on your platform?
author 5 months ago next
User2, we use advanced AI algorithms for spam filtering and also enforce hardware-based 2FA for account protection.

User5, good catch. We faced some initial issues, but we've been able to overcome them using sharding.

Your decentralized social media platform has a lot of potential. Which use cases did you focus on during your initial development?

How did you approach the user interface and experience compared to traditional social media platforms, given the decentralized nature?

@User9, since our platform is based on a decentralized network, users connect p2p to maintain content relevance of their feeds. We also enabled Twitter-like posts with hashtags to improve content discoverability.

@User8, we focused on content-creation, sharing, and group communication as priority use cases during the initial development. We used a peer-to-peer approach to ensure interoperability among users in the network.
