That platform represents something bigger than just social media—it's about shifting power back to regular people. Think about it: traditional news outlets? Run by what, maybe a dozen decision-makers at the top? Meanwhile, anyone with internet access can now break stories, share perspectives, challenge narratives.
This is basically citizen journalism on steroids. No gatekeepers filtering what you're allowed to see. The crowd decides what's worth attention. Sure, it's messy sometimes, but that's the trade-off for actual free speech.
We're watching decentralized media in real-time. Whether it fully replaces legacy systems or just forces them to evolve—either way, the genie's out of the bottle.

It sounds ideal, but what about in practice? Who will review false information?

ngl the "genie's out of the bottle" part hits different when you're watching mempool patterns spike... decentralization sounds poetic until you realize transaction costs become the new gatekeeper lol

The ROI of decentralized media is indeed worth paying attention to, but the computational power consumed in verifying the authenticity of information may be higher than expected.

Sounds ideal, but we all know reality tends to slap us in the face.

Many hands make light work? Uh... what people usually contribute is just garbage information.
---
Decentralized media sounds cool, but who's going to fact-check?
---
Power goes to the people... then gets taken over by influencers and scammers, nice.
---
This logic is full of holes; without gatekeepers, it actually becomes an information hell.
---
So yeah, sometimes freedom and chaos are separated by just a thin line.
---
Decentralized sounds fancy, but in reality, it just lets rumors spread faster.
---
Traditional media is indeed bad, but at least there are some standards. Now what?
---
The genie is out, sure, but this genie just wants to scam us out of our money.

The question is, are people really smart enough to tell truth from lies? I'm not that optimistic.
