There are more long-form content clients? 🤷♂️
New “building in public” blog: Social 2.0
What is Social 2.0?
If Social 1.0 was about billion+ user platforms that transformed into algorithmically driven dopamine monsters, Social 2.0 is an opportunity to build something new and more intentional.
It’s a second chance to build a social layer for the web.
The Social 2.0 era will be marked by the rise of many different niche and micro social networks, each with a core focus or specialty domain.
It will also likely be developed atop a global, open, identity protocol - the leading candidate which I believe is NOSTR - where users own their content, data, followers and identity.
Full intro piece below.
Subscribe on Substack for now.
I will bring it over to Nostr of course, when nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft gets Highlighter working properly 😉
Discussion
None are good right now. The amount of times I’ve lost a draft is infuriating. They also don’t format properly. It’s not worth the effort.
When someone takes it seriously and builds something really good, I’ll try again.
It’s a long shot, but I’m hoping Ghost will see the light and abandon its pursuit of Activity Pub for #nostr 🙏🏻
