Once you finally say the things that have been weighing on your mind, you break the damn that has been perpetually holding you back from making that meaningful change in your life.

The moment we get a decentralized video platform that actually puts creators first is the moment the planet really opens up to a world of novel ideas, new perspectives, and true creativity.

There needs to be a (decentralized) place where people can file their grievances towards a company so that everyone can see JUST how common it is for these big companies to mercilessly screw people over. A Trust Pilot + Better Business Bureau type that actually hold some weight and where large corporations can't just create a bunch of fake accounts to prop up their reputation. With categories detailing (and tallying) their worst offenses (staff abusing their power, shady business practices, wrongful bans, false advertising, privacy violations, etc.). If people only knew AND actually held these companies accountable, they would receive drastically less business to begin with. And then the Doers of the world can seize on that opportunity in the market and fill the gap that these companies chose to create. Highly trustworthy and ethical companies founded by honest individuals can then sprout up in their place and substantially benefit the communities they serve (all while making a comfortable living doing something they love).

With the enshitification of platforms progressing more and more each day, communities led by visionaries and trailblazers will become even more essential if we ever hope to enact any meaningful change in the world.

People Who Romanticize the Past

The "curate your feed" lie social media companies try to sell you

We need a Nostr style protocol (i.e. decentralized and actually just) to rework the entire justice system. Anytime a company is found guilty violating the rights of millions, and causing immeasurable degrees of harm to people. They always get let off with the lightest slap on the wrist imaginable. Equivalent to the profits they rake in from conducting business for a mere 2 minutes straight. Yet when a paragon of excellence with the most pristine track record within a 1,000 mile radius J-walks at 4:35am in a town with no cars. They get fined and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and half their life is completely ruined.
