post-reading jonathan haidt, time to play devil's advocate

current web2 social: like/reply-performance algo -> increased unhealthy social comparison -> increased anxiety, polarization, depression

the core design elements of most web3 social is $, which can bring out even worse in people

and this is good?

discuss :)

neither are good

however you can design tokens as social lubricants (h/t @christopher) rather than them having to carry intrinsic financial value

we don’t collect POAP to later sell them, we collect them to have onchain proof of attendance (which *may* be rewarded later on)

financial transaction based**

all onchain transactions at the end of the day are data tho, sometimes that data is financial sometimes it’s not!

most of web3 social is transaction based probably bc that’s the easiest thing to base it off of, grab attention quickly, and amass a user base right now

basing a social media platform on something other than attention (web2) or money (web3) takes a lot more data + work + dedication

is onchain: freelancing, writing, hosting /rileybeans /community & co-host /words /gaycoinz

true

i'm optimistic about the concept and focus on a portable social graph in which we can focus on:

# of IRL connections (cc @icebreaker)
# of shared experiences (cc @eventsxyz, /poap)
# of shared communities (channels, @hypersub)
collective physical + mental health (cc @receipts or what i've seen from @albiverse)

great minds! really curious to hear @christopher's POV on "social lubricants", haven't heard that term used in crypto before but i'm already digging it
