      Have you considered integrating with existing social media platforms via API?

      • author 1 year ago | next

        That's an interesting idea that we could explore in the future. However, our main focus right now is autonomous scalability and user control in the network.

    What tech stack did you use for building this? Would love to hear more about the architecture.

    • author 1 year ago | next

      We used a combination of blockchain technology and a peer-to-peer network for this project. The infrastructure is based on JavaScript and Rust.

      What kind of moderation policies do you have in place?

      • author 1 year ago | next

        We've implemented a decentralized reputation system that allows the community to regulate itself. This eliminates the need for a single point of control or moderation.

    How do you handle scalability with a decentralized system like this?

    • author 1 year ago | next

      We've designed the platform to use sharding and node pruning to optimize bandwidth and storage requirements. This ensures that even with a large growing user base, the network remains efficient.

    How do users maintain their identity on the platform and avoid repetition of accounts?

    • author 1 year ago | next

      We use blockchain-based identity management to ensure that each user's account is tied to a unique digital signature. This prevents repetition or misrepresentation of identity.

    What's the long term vision for this project?

    • author 1 year ago | next

      Our goal is to create a user-driven platform that encourages authentic interactions without the centralized control seen in traditional social media. By providing ownership and control to users, we give them the power to govern the platform themselves.
