We’re all having fun with mints and memes here now and 99% of the world doesn’t get it yet but bringing censorship resistant social media to the world is the real reason why evangelizing this ecosystem is one of the most high impact things to be doing in crypto rn

the most important feature of censorship resistant social media is an algorithm that’s resistant to censorship or manipulation

a fair algorithm provides novel utility to normies. building this is the way we bring crypto mainstream

I think a more likely scenario is we have a shared data layer and multiple algorithms that compete

Not sure a “fair” algorithm is possible. Human perception of fair can be very different

transparent financial markets can be used to build a decentralized, manipulation resistant algo

this is likely the closest you can get to a perfectly “fair” algo

normies will likely switch “groups” (eg from repub to dem farcaster channel) instead of switching algos

easier + more intuitive to measure content popularity across different groups vs different algos

disagree on multiple algos. switching algos is confusing and doesn’t provide clear utility to normies 

“best” algo will have network effects that capture >80% of viewers
