Thanks for this, Jason. I'll put it on my list of platforms to watch for further development, as it looks like it could very well evolve into what we actually need, in a form all can readily use.

Aether

I like their "Real Prime Directive":

Act fast and chomp down on posts that just haven't gotten the basic idea.

Why? Vast majority of people are genuinely good, pleasant humans. But a very small number of misbehavers can make any place not so great, even when almost all of the people in the place is still well-meaning.

Vast majority of people also have no concept of just how much effort and vigilance it takes to keep a community a pleasant place, or how efficiently an awful post can ruin a lot of people's days. The work you do is valuable.

Aether attempts to fix that by making your actions visible, and in the front and center. People will see just how much work you're doing to keep your corner of the world an enjoyable place.

Similar content to SaidIt and Voat. Seems good but the GUI is for phones with meh graphics. They're heavy on the ephemeral aspect which I don't like either.

It's a social media thing with Ethereum and IPFS, however that may work. It's still vapourware and I'm still too early even after a few years as they're still in development.
