Agreed. For example, we have a gazillion reposts and shares adding the asknostr tag around here. That’s interesting, and I’m curious to see how well community self-moderation of tags, à la Stack Exchange, will work in the context of general social media.
This might be a point of contention, but in the underbelly of the beast, I also like the idea of DHT + pkarr. For now this is a somewhat uninformed opinion like my earlier take on IPFS. But assuming it works, it sounds great. Not necessarily as a be-all and end-all solution to every distributed social media problem, but I can certainly see use cases where we need aggregators and wonky bootstrapping logic which could benefit from DHT-based alternatives.
