IMO, it isn’t decentralized enough. The federated model is better than centralized corporate services, of course, but it still suffers many of the same pitfalls in microcosm. We need private, encrypted friend-to-friend connections that enable friend-of-a-friend onion routing to those outside one’s personal social circle to effectively mimic how real human social networks actually work. The only middlemen we need are the friends we made along the way.

I cannot, and they can’t stand me either because I’ve deleted more bitcoin than most of them will ever see and I’ve personally killed roughly $5million in crypto scams before they could get off the ground. XD

From my perspective, that’s not something I’d use, or at least, it wouldn’t have been much use to me when I was a young closeted queer person in small town Australia. It wouln’t have been much help finding my peers

It could have been, there’s nothing preventing such a network from providing a degree of anonymity by leaving your signature out of a post and adding a few increments to the distance on its onion route to obfuscate the source.
