While not anything blockchain-based, I had a similar thought of just doing social media through a single text file that you can add to/remove from whenever, and re-post the whole thing[0]. Literally HTTP POST it.
Edit, amend, add, delete, schedule, etc., all from a single text file. I haven't worked on it in a few weeks but I intend to get back to it soon.

- kfrzcode 3y agosigh I'm now old enough to watch yet another wave of "reinventing 2005 web dev again" Did you know HTML and CSS are basically text files with some special organization that allow you to make really snazzy colors and marquees and stuff? It's just a text file you can POST, too! Super simple, use the same tools you use now. Well, you'll need a browser to make it look pretty, but that's not the point right?
