Which decentralized social media do you use? And why?

Interested particularly in comparing Minds, Deso, and Bastyon. - There is not much information on the web in this regard!

    Crypto/blockchain is the kiss of the death for the legitimacy of any project.

    You just know the whole thing will built around pump-and-dumps or quick rug pulls.

      This confuses me… I thought that a project being attached to a crypto/Blockchain was a good thing? Because things you create on the Blockchain stay yours and are secure and the project can somehow self fund itself. All very confusing, but something like that. Are you saying that ALL Projects built on a Blockchain are suspicious? Very interesting

        I do think blockchain/crypto is a massive red flag.

        From a product perspective, the focus will always be on “pump and dump” not the actual product/service. See “web 3.0 gaming” for a perfect example.

        Not sure what you mean about “staying yours” and “secure”.
