Decentralizing Social Media – depub.SPACE and Liker.Social | LikeCoin Update
LikeCoin decentralizes publishing. Own your content forever.Decentralizing Social Media – depub.SPACE and Liker.Social | LikeCoin UpdateBi-weekly LikeCoin update. 2022.04.28🔎 Focus Story: Decentralized Social MediaTech mogul Elon Musk’s bid for Twitter has triggered people’s imagination about decentralized social media. Free speech, open source, and transparency that he advocates are exactly the distinctive features of decentralized platforms, and some similar developments are already taking place in the LikeCoin ecosystem. Hail Free Speech, Privacy by DefaultBoth social media Dapp – depub.SPACE and Liker.Social are open source projects which have various features to safeguard freedom of speech. Using depub.SPACE needs no registration or personal information, all you need is a wallet address. As a “stateless” service, depub.SPACE also minimizes information that users leave online. These “privacy by default’ features are especially important for some users located in politically sensitive regions, as their personal safety is often at risk when they express their views. In terms of technical design, the address based index also enables users to integrate with the other “decentralized identity” services. For example, users can use their wallet addresses to build their Desmos profiles. When using the same address to post on depub.SPACE, their profile pictures and self descriptions will be automatically linked. Not Your Key, Not Your ContentBased on Mastodon, Liker.Social breaks down the oligopolistic social media platform like Twitter to small communities. Each community is individually run but also interconnected. Users who are not satisfied with a particular community can always migrate to another one. The biggest difference between Liker.Social and other Mastodon platforms, however, is that toots on Liker.Social can be published to the LikeCoin chain. Users own the content they create, and they could even mint NFTs in the future. Liker.Social supports one-click publishing to blockchain, while depub.SPACE presets all content on-chain. Both platforms are built on the LikeCoin ecosystem. Liker.Social also supports Civic Liker, which turns “Likes” to actual income and directly distributes LikeCoin delegation rewards to creators. Immutable PublishingCentralized platforms can remove or even delete your content. On the contrary, works published on blockchain will leave a trail and be maintained by the public. Even if depub.SPACE and liker.social no longer exist, your content can still be found and read on other block explorers which support LikeCoin (e.g., app.like.co).
