So Bitcoin joined the decentralised social network bandwagon...

in #bitcoin6 years ago

But is it good enough?
It called https://bitcoinhackers.org
A bitcoin mastodon!

So basically it works like this:

You can trust a node operator to let your account data use its node
or you can run your own node and all the data yours
however a small amount of data aka a "hash" can be seen which the other nodes can see
they store that as well but it so little not much at all
the people who trust can switch anytime to a different node operator
and the people who use the common view are the mods which can "delete" stuff
but they can't do it fully
bc it be public knowledge
and the whole thing just looks like twitter

A LN tip bot is in the work that will become more decentralized than any other tip bot aka no custodial relationship.

It not as good as steem { I don make money :( } but the need of decentralization has grown to create this!
It also a social experiment. You don't see how popular the tweet known as a toot over there- is without clicking the link. This puts your opinion in a more of a open space and that way your not influenced by numbers

The general sentiment appears to be that Mastodon will be used either in tandem with Twitter (an app for cross-posting across both platforms is currently being propagated) or as a backup network for users that have been banned from it. However the single use posting has occurred so a third option might occur-general use :)

Many big twitter people have come over there as well.

Only time can tell if this movement can sustained and last
