I personally like the invite-only aspect. Clears up a lot of the Twitter BS, I haven't used Steemit or the other twitter clone so not sure how it compares.
A solid moderation strategy would be needed.
How to moderate a community in a decentralized way that's tough to game? How would a PeepethDAO work?

It is a fairly quiet place to begin with. For now.
I think that will change when it becomes easier for people to sign up and use (no invites, totally free, etc)

James, check out moringa. Very high in protein and lots of other good stuff.
How does moringa affect you? At first it gave me a sense of wellbeing, but later made me noticeably "chilled out" and tired to the point where I stopped taking it. A lot of people swear by it though.
Replying to @abcoathup (0x13ebd3443fa5575f0eb173e323d8419f7452cfb1)
It took a second look to see why this was different. The question is why? Why? Why?
That's hilarious. Maybe the owner just has a sense of humor?

Merit is an invite-only blockchain project with actual tech and no ICO crapfest. Their site is very well designed and organized, nice team and their growth mining concept is interesting. Sharing site and an invite below for the curious: https://wallet.merit.me/?invite=wgmeets
Sounds like a cool project. I like their focus on simplicity and usability.

Hello world. How many people are here?

My guesses: -Bad usability -Analogous services have first-mover advantage -Bad usability -Legacy media/authorities constantly smearing crypto -Bad usability
Expanding on bad usability:
-getting crypto is hard
-not used to using web3 providers
-latency
-hard to build usable interfaces
Also, not a ton of compelling use cases?

28 degrees in #London last night. Perfect evening to park ourselves on the balcony. Candles, shish a, and drinks.
Nice accoutrements and photo. Love inhabits that place and this captures it.

All in all I feel like the most important part of journalling is helping you become a clearer thinker and deal with complex situations. It's an excellent philosophical tool. I've used journalling to process multiple deaths of people I've loved, and work through a lot of fear.
I think if more people realized this they would journal. The implicit thought that journaling has to be "good" in some way has sometimes held me back.
How will you organize your digital journal? I have so many note files scattered about; needs some order.

On slow reading, the opposite of speed reading. https://www.theindy.us/slow-reading/
Interesting to think of analogs of this, and their effects.
Slow talking, slow walking, slow eating, slow writing, slow programming,...
When I started learning about mindfulness, I did a slow eating exercise that was sublime and opened my eyes to meditation.
