I have the same issue, would love to engage more but sorted feed is either same through out day or bloated

Exactly! Fortunately there are some great devs working on generalized web 3 sign in(like SpruceID) and we have some experiments with blockchain based social media(like Lens protocol) These are by no means perfect but can paint a picture of what's actually possible if we were to differenciate some bad actors using this new technology to scam people from actual underlying tech

Wow now that's a stretch you're putting thoughts in my mind lol! English is not my native language(I'd like to think I'm good with it though) Anyways if you can come to conclusions about people so quickly that says enough about you I've just used word "hate" and you're making such drama.

I don't understand your first sentence but it's ok i guess we both have our values Also probably hate wasn't right word to use you're right Have a nice day

That's not a stretch. Let me give you a recent example. In past few months people in Iran started protesting against regime(it's mostly known as Woman Life Freedom, you can search for it online) To begin with there's no such thing as free internet in Iran but people are used to ways to circumvent it(Proxy/VPN) but guess what? Instagram the most popular social media in iran decides that videos from the protests where actual people are getting shot on the street is "violent" and "harmful" and decides to remove them(not just shootings, even those where people were simply chanting)! How the hell are people supposed to tell the world what's going on there? It's not just Instagram it's almost all of these social media(which Iranian people don't really know of or use) How would web 3 solve this? Of course it's not magical and it's not going to solve this completely but at least these people would have chance to share what's going on There are hundreds of such events year Also blockchain is pseudonymous and isn't necessarily tied to a person may I ask what's your problem with web 3? What makes you hate it so much?

I totally get your point. but I feel like thinking that censoring is OK comes from the fact that most of people here have not ever experienced authoritarian regimes or been on the other side(getting censored) In a web 3 platform your content is always there but it doesn't mean that we all can see it! You can opt-in to use some kind of moderated ui that only shows appropriate content. Isn't this the same? No cause I'm free to express myself and people willing can follow my thoughts and if you find it inappropriate you're also free to ignore me. If you're interested I can share examples of these censorships that leads to people getting killed

Edit: grammar

Down votes as expected, would appreciate some actual reasoning from anyone against what I've said

Looks awesome

It was such a nice episode. Umbra is an amazing service, as mentioned in the episode ux isn't the best but gets the job done

I think you don't understand value proposition of web 3. Aside from financial applications, web 3(if realized properly) gives you certainty and even a better ux. Imagine you have a single account, secured and truly decentralized (no one will be able to delete or manipulate your account) you can easily signup in any web 3 site/app and start using it, ideally you content, data or whatever You're generating in this platform is stored on a Blockchain, immutable for ever. No one can censor you! You don't have to trust goodwill of anyone, everything will just work!

Not sure about kbin but sign-up/account management on lemmy is kinda broken as well. For example lemmy.ml doesn't allow new users to sign up and when you try its just infinite loading with no visible response. Or on beehaw.org where you have to sign up and pray that you're accepted cause otherwise you're just ghosted. Edit: also there's no way to migrate to another instance There's a long way ahead in terms of UX

Interesting, are you planning on an open source/free app?
