I've used Scuttlebutt (https://scuttlebutt.nz/ https://scuttlebutt.nz/) and Aether (https://getaether.net/ https://getaether.net/) which are P2P apps, but I never really started using them. Didn't find interesting content or communities to keep me engaged. It's not easy to build a vibrant social network from scratch.

- incrudible 6y agoI looked at this yesterday, but if I have to download something just to look at it, that's a huge barrier of entry. It needs to (also) work over ordinary HTTP/HTML and needs to be indexed by search engines, just like Twitter. The guys at STEEM.IT or LBRY.IO have figured this out. Also, somehow these sites aren't Neonazi cesspools. Not sure how moderation works over there.
