Social media is mainstream. This is a place to discuss social media's design and impact. /social is the place for the intelligent and globally informed conversation about social media we've always been looking for.

If decentralized social is to succeed, the breakthrough won’t come from outstanding social features but from the emergence of various applications built on top of the social network. These applications will introduce new experiences and features, and it’s these innovations that will attract people to decentralized social platforms. Therefore, the most important and fundamental aspect of decentralized social protocols might be maintaining openness. However, openness is easier said than done-even the smallest intentions can become obstacles.

my disappointment w/ w3 social is in its unoriginality. yes, there's so much to learn from successful w2 platforms, but it's not enough to iterate on the business model. eg: -WC = X+ -Zora = IG+ is it too much to ask for innovation in both tech and UX? the former enables new possibilities for the later

Does anyone here spend much time on bluesky? I’m curious how the culture compares, developer ratio, etc.

Feel bad for all the boomers still addicted to Facebook who must be up to their necks wading through AI slop right about now. https://youtu.be/rdqGprD7akE

Who is setting up a moxie union with guaranteed income, healthcare benefits and pension for those full time workers paid in moxie that want a little bit of job security. Percentage taken at source for full cover in the event of necessity.

one use case for these onchain pictures is crowdfunding you don't need complex tools; a simple post and those 30 cents might feel like nothing, but from thousands of users, it can make a big difference for any creator

is this a hot take? i believe periodic pruning of follows is the *best* way to keep your feed great. the platform that will beat context collapse is the one that figures out how to model how relationships "breathe" and help users accept that not every connection is permanent

continuing this thread: an algofeed should be listening to you and working in your interests literally. we have cold started /uno with a reverse chron feed and our alpha users repeatedly tell us they don't like it/are surprised to see content they don't like (but from accounts they follow! 😆)

do you think the snapchat points system was successful? what does it actually end up representing?

The next big social media of the future will not look like the social media of the past. It’s always been something that is 10x different.
