🤔 John So, there's a lot of talk on here about social networks, especially since sub level is an experimental social network with a modest community of quality users. I know some of you have talked about or are working on your own network. I agree that existing networks have evolved in ways I'm not happy with. What can we do differently? What could separate your network (or the next alternative network) from the existing ones? What problems are they and aren't they solving?
🦿 Lucian Marin Implementation is key, not ideas. I really liked a lot of social networks at first, but once they grown the experience suffered.

🦿 Lucian Marin More features, harder to use. More JavaScript, slower to load. More content, impossible to read and digest.

🤔 John AFAIK you're the only one of us who's actually created a social network! I've been kicking around some high level ideas in terms of network interaction, but I'm not interested (or capable if I'm honest) of building my own. I'm mostly curious if the people here, who lean more technical than my Twitter feed, are thinking about the same kinds of limitations in existing social nets.
👽 Paul Webb I'm building one at socii.network! You can see it in action at hub.socii.network. It's not polished but I'm getting there.
