#lkie Peepeth has many headquarters across the globe
Growing all the time! @Bevan is basically lead dev/visionary of a world-changing decentralized multinational organization. Wow.
Don't tell him yet.
Let him realize his success on his own.

Thanks for the welcome Bevan and also for buidling Peepeth. Great job! I'll do what I can to get the word out and bring more people on board.
Nice username!
Welcome to Peepeth.

https://peepeth.com/front_end links to a "Peepeth Reader/Verifier" that has been shared via ipfs.io, but I can't get it to work. When I open the link, I just get a progress bar that fills up, and nothing comes afterward.
That was a (working) prototype spun up by the creator of Leeroy. He was showing what a powerful idea this design was. Since then, the back end has been tweaked a little (to allow for cheap/free peeps). The reader was a casualty. Also why more front ends don't exist yet. Debugging

Are you involved with the Fuel Brothers outfit? Also Australian. I'm sure you've heard of them at least... huh?

Yep. I see the double edged sword that peepeth presents. My question though is what happens if peep gets really big and they want to censor it?
Misread this I think. If an outside entity wanted to censor Peepeth. Users could still interact directly with the Etehreum blockchain or spin up their own front ends. It would be like cutting off the head of a hydra if it ever got to that point.

The front end can be censored. In fact, illegal or hateful content WILL be censored. The back end is open. This make the censorship open. It provides the ability for other front ends. People can't lose their userbase or history. Very worst they have to post via a different site.

Testing out the #video posting capabilities. It's what I do, so I need to know if PeepEth can do it and do it well. #youtube #trailer #film #filmmaking #movies https://youtu.be/DnDWUe7k4Ws
Wow, some of those are really intriguing! All seem well done.
Over The Wall 👍
Consider posting some exclusive Peepeth content or setting stretch goals if you get a certain number of tips. IE Peepeth exclusive behind the scenes of this short if/when it raises $500 or whatever.

It def can do it. It does it well. Sometimes too well...
Since we're still pretty small everyone is basically using the "fire hose" feed. Too many posts with previews can get a little overwhelming.
Active engagement is preferred to passive engagement. Will check out your story

Doing well. Things have been great around Peepeth today. Lots of constructive interactions and idea exchanges. You'll enjoy getting caught up, I think.

Hey Marcos, if you post stuff that's nsfw, please include the nsfw hashtag and it'll hide by default. Thanks.
Yeah, naked people on toilet probably aren't work friendly.
We have a lot of Peeple at work at any given time, actually.

Hey, shhhhhh!
That was an exploit that I made @James fully aware of, btw.
Of course, he already knew about it, but just didn't have the time to re-engineer it. Then someone else came around at the end and exploited it to the max. Same happened with Toshi user "ratings".

A week or two depending if the box has to be made or using a cigar box. Finding the time is the hardest part; so with that it can take a quite a while. I tend to get more accomplished over the winter. I have people waiting to buy them, so yes I do sell them once in a while.
I don't suppose you've ever wanted to make one with an Ethereum logo as the base? Or does the box part really have to be rectangular for acoustic reasons?
Replying to @abcoathup (0x13ebd3443fa5575f0eb173e323d8419f7452cfb1)
Content is the responsibility of the person creating it. A developer can filter, even censor but it is the creator who is responsible for the content. No one can block anyone from posting via the smart contract. People can be blocked from posting via a front end.
This distinction should be another floating box on the sidebar (desktop). The setup is so different here than traditional infrastructures.
Open backend. Anyone can build on and interact with it. Front end with a very specific goal of fixing "broken" social media dynamics.

then if that is the case I can agree, however, and not to belabor the issue and I gotta go, but i responded to what i saw as folk wanting to censor other content, that's all. g'day and cheers for your patience with my learning curve on this medium.
Enjoying it. Take is easy @ChiliMac !

Ok. So I misunderstood a few of your posts then. I thought you meant CEOs of the tech monopolies (and their cronies). I feel a little different in light of that definition. Much like your posts about learning about taxes... learning tech will be a path to freedom.
That said, it should be made easy to investigate. The building blocks are all transparent - translating that to something easily inspect-able by the average person will require a little effort from the user, but devs are openly working towards that goal. Will happen. 100%

perhaps, I suppose my failure is not knowing a great deal about blockchain, but I am always suspicious about something steering or directing according some algo or some such I did note originate myself
That's the beauty of it. It's 100% open. You can vet it yourself, tweak it yourself, rebuild it yourself. I am generally distrusting of "black boxes" - this tech is going to make transparency relatively EASY... we just need a little more infrastructure for user friendliness.

or thrown out, as would happen if we allow a technocrat to have the authority to do that. My point is, content is the responsibility of the developer, the free, open market will decide whether to consume or not. see the difference. No censorship or control, just free decisions
Can you define, for the sake of my own sanity, what you are referring to when you say "technocrat"?
Thank you.
Replying to @ChiliMac (0x90cfd4934278cfc9205e5893b089074acd8eb351)
again with the "steering" thingy. I wholeheartedly disagree because I know no one can be trusted to do it agendalessly. You may not agree, fine. This is why we have the 1stA and why the various soc mediums are WRONG to shadow ban and close sites that someone doesn't like
I feel like you two are on the same page, actually.
No? isn't @ian saying yeah, that's not right and blockchain will help... And you're saying it's def not right, people should steer themselves...
And he's saying blockchains will empower people steer themselves...
🤔
Replying to @ian (0x1b6a6072c8eac4ec04b171e9e665786a60d4925f)
i agree. however, there is infinite content on the web and we rely on centralized mediums to access it. decentralized replacements to these systems should steer people towards legitimate, factual content. i believe we can do it in a way that is agendaless and transparent.
I thought #ChiliMac meant technocrats - as in FAANG etc. I need to re-read.
I think blockchains and the dApps built on top of them are going to help combat the damage those companies have been doing, knowingly or otherwise.

Personally I chose to mute you not bc of something specific you said but because the whole wall was full of links posted by you and it was too hard finding out about other people. If you can filter and choose 1-2 important ideas/day more people would be interested to know them.
I think some of the problem will be - that other people are coming over from Twitter or Facebook where likes and views translate to metrics that move messages further up the queue. The vision (well, Peepeth's vision) for a better social network experience doesn't work like that.

Yeah, it was the rapidity. That was short-lived though. He has only posted a few links today, but he's on fire with engagement!
#unmute ?

not exactly what I meant to convey. I meant to say if you start out foolishly believing in a false ideal, you gotta be ready to pay the price. I'm not afraid of rattle snakes, but I don't go out of my way to handle them, though they are great deep fried wrapped in bacon

cheers, but precisely which link r u unhappy about? I seriously don't link to stuff I don't agree with. I share becuz I believe people need to know this stuff, stuff which they may otherwise not be exposed to. I thought this was the purpose of peepeth?
I'm not unhappy. Peepeth is about positive engagement. I just have a personal preference for active vs passive engagement, probably.
Since we are all basically still using the "fire hose" feed - the slower pace of active engagements are really nice too. Enjoying it.

AHA! again, my point exactly free speech can be ugly at times, then again, it is truly all we have to try to establish a more perfect union and betterment of all. yet there are some here who have muted my or are triggered by my message and get pissy. no matter, I persist
I think you write and think out loud more convincingly than some of what you link to. Your voice is generally reasonable, logical, and obviously passionate - glad you're using it.

AHA! precisely my point! I call it the human factor, and it can ruin the best of plans or ideas. the best laid plans of mice and men, etc . . . .
There's a fair amount of philosophical work that attempts to show we all actually, generally, agree - if we just take the time to pin down our terminology well enough.

Absolutely, there is some ingratitude - we build on every generation before us, we have so much to be grateful for... I think it comes from systemic inequity (often while we are taught, conflictingly, that everyone should be treated equal) and what is seen as unfair rules.
The pace of innovation and tech advancement also probably doesn't help. A couple hundred years ago - your fathers world would have been much more similar to your own.

and yet it is bcuz of our "elders" that we have what we do have. I detect a note of ingratitude, but no issue with me. Not "lazy" just indoctrinated and ignorant of objective reality.

"modern thing?!?" disagree. I live on a reservation and let me tell you, provincial mindset aside, I've seen families fight over such schtoopid shit as gramdma's jewelry or land surveys--not unique to the rez. as I said, I know whom/what to trust. prom notes just anther fiat, imo
Absolutely would be another fiat. But it would have a backing - which would be consensus from a snapshot someone kept off the grid. When things went online again society would settle up. Worst case. Not ideal.
There are always examples of dysfunction. I have seen both sides.

Whoa there... not gonna slip into negativity! The point is: trying to split things down generational lines is counter-productive. Reality is that we need people of diverse backgrounds (& ages) to come together to solve the problems that aren't going to fix themselves. All of them

so r u saying we diminish our rights bcuz the rest of the world controls their sheeple? btw, I have lots of crypto as a hedge and move against fiat $, but I also have lots of metals, irrigated fields, cattle, tangibles, etc. crypto is 1 emp attack from bust.
I think people could trade crypto with promissory notes if the lights went out. Neighbors can generally trust each other - we survived that way for eons. Distrust - especially distrust of people so close - is a modern thing. Sad, really.
Not saying we should diminish our rights.
