That's interesting. Sites like DappRadar show far more Polygon apps than Solana apps ( https://dappradar.com/rankings/chains , https://www.alchemy.com/dapps ). I don't know how representative th

Useful. Thanks

I considered Solana. Lower fees allows for micro tipping. Polygon is pretty cheap though, less that 0.3 cents at current prices. Its the sort of app that really needs to stick to one chain to save confusion and complexity, I think.

Only in the short term. TheGraph is migrating from a centralised service to a decentralised network and the community can run alternative oauth servers to help mitigate attacks. I'm no cybersecurity specialist though. Also, the data is

Other than no funding and a team size of 1? ;-) Slightly different vision and approach but both are publishing platforms. There’s plenty of room for competition in this space, I think. Monetisation: Seedling uses direct tipping instead of N

IPFS and Nostr are both brilliant but they have their limitations. The main issue I see for an app like seedling is that by submitting your content you lose control over it. You cannot edit or delete. Ideally many different hosting options

Currently, on GitHub but could be anywhere. Need to balance the freedom to publish anonymously with the risk of people claiming credit for other people’s work. Perhaps the platform should allow any url to be published and restrict tipping t

Yeah, I guess it’s more accurate to call it an [almost] fully decentralised discovery service rn. Decentralised hosting should come later. The almost is for the oauth server, which can be improved by adding other independent trusted servers

by dnpotter1 3y ago
That’s true but I am trying to discourage people publishing other people’s work. Hence users need to link their account through oauth. Other hosts can be added.

Lol! It’s not my intention for this to be a get rich quick scheme but there are running costs (user registration and TheGraph network payments). If the platform is to be self sustaining it needs to cover its costs. Is there a reasonable lon

It provides a discovery service

Oh, that's really cool! I wasn't aware of Habla - thanks. I'll check it out.

A plain URL could be one of the future publishing options. Hopefully a platform like Seedling could add value through discovery and content monetisation.

Thanks.

It was an easy way to get the app up and running without needing to worry about hosting, editing features and user profiles. I.e. release minimal functionality then expand if people like the app. Intention is to add other hosting options, l

That's a nice self contained application. A fun project with a dark twist! Can I pre-order my nanochip? As you say, there are a few programs and online services that can do similar things but they can be expensive. And you have to trus
