1) True Ownership ✊ Portraits are entirely owned by their creators and hosted by peers on a distributed network. They are fully customisable—users can add text, videos, images, and links.

2) Rethinking Connections 🧑🤝🧑 Instead of "following," users host Portraits, allocating storage to others' data. It’s like seeding a torrent—a more intentional and authentic way to connect.

4) Intentional Consumption 📲 By shifting away from feed-centric models, Portrait avoids the ad-driven pitfalls of Web2 social platforms. Instead, it prioritises human connections over passive consumption.
