Title: The Challenges and Potential of Decentralized Community Management
Post by: aima55 on September 16, 2024, 09:17:36 PM
Web3, social platforms, and DAOs are evolving fast. It’s interesting how they’re changing online communities, especially the move from centralized platforms to ones where users actually control their own data. But the big question is: do everyday users care enough to make the switch? DAOs seem like a game-changer too, with collective decision-making through smart contracts. But in reality, some struggle with low participation or endless debates. The challenge is making it all user-friendly.

I've checked out some Web3 social platforms, and DeBox seems to be trying something different. They mix social features, DAO tools, and on-chain data in an interesting way, though it's tough to predict how they’ll do long-term. What do you think? Will decentralized social platforms take off, or is it just too early? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Try promoting a web based something versus something involving a client the user has to download and/or install, and compare the signup rates.

For ones where not leaving it online 24/7 leads to delay getting it up to date upon returning from work or the weekend arriving add in disengagement resulting from finding the whole thing too awkward. Throw in an off the shelf box they just plug into power and internet sockets, even one available at WALmarts etc etc etc everywhere and it'll still cut down on your signup rates.

But hey, "in the future(tm)" all homes will be smart homes with those things already up and running so yeah, sure, suuuurrrre, gonna catch on for sure, just a matter of time...

There is browser-side persistent storage now though so hey, sure, coming soon (tm) ...
