For me, I received a cool video on FB Messenger, with a TikTok URL. So I opened it and could just see it without making an account. That felt fresh already. Then I decided to get the app, and instantly I got a stream of actually interesting

I think web3 is still a fuzzy concept, but if it's less divisive maybe it would be better to call it a possible evolution of how we share cat pictures. The boom of cryptocurrencies, and NFTs, and all the jazz, sparked a need for thinki

Oh, I missed on that. And yes, that is true. I can't help think that for a hackathon, it's a pretty good use case for something like this. The organizers can then take the files from wherever and post them to their YouTube channel
