Decentralized Social Media: What Creators Need To Know About Web3 Platforms

Most people don’t think about where their social media actually lives.
And if that doesn’t sit right with you, you’re not alone. That’s a little too much power for a small group of people to wield.

Here’s the good news: A different kind of social media is starting to grow in the background. One built on openness, transparency, and user control instead of central control.

    As someone who's crypto-neutral, I don't want to be too negative...

    But this article talks about Bluesky and Mastodon. Bluesky is not decentralized and neither application uses any web3 technology.

    Is there any actual web3 social media? It doesn't seem like the best use of web3 (versus stuff like financial automation, etc.)

    I like how you carefully avoided to say bitcoin, blockchain, or scam in your post.

    Also, cryptocurrency. Actually, it's all cryptocurrency, please invest in the pretend money we're wizarding out of the void.

    I still ponder if i should keep this post in my community because i'm not fond of bitcoin...

    And i know other currency (G1 la june, free currency) that work as a "basic income" and don't depend on farming computers with GPU.
