I feel that outside of the tech circle, people generally don't understand that a social media service is free only because the user is the product. By monetizing their habits, a business can then sell ads to pay for servers and staff.

Thank you for featuring my profile in your post. Reading it at the moment :)

I'm okay with the name. It's unique.

What are we discussing here, the name of Peepeth?

Don't forget to reveal your bid after Sunday during the reveal period!

I like to explore all the features of a webapp whenever I sign up, a job hazard I guess.

Is there a Peepeth feature roadmap that we can view?

Thanks, I just did that and viola it appears. That button definitely needs a little UX upgrade :)

I’ve been trying to look for that but I don’t see “add account”. There is “create account” and “import account”.

How do you login to a child wallet on Metamask using Brave browser? My Peepeth account is linked to a child wallet — when I login to Metamask on Brave, it only shows the first wallet. Typing this on Cipher now -.-

It doesn't seem to work in the search tool, for now.

Have you bid on any yet?

Might be a future feature. As it is now, hashtag searching doesn't work.

Well technically anybody can just check the tx hash and see the source. A little sleuthing and one can see where the funds from the social account arrived from. Separating the accounts just makes it a little less visible.

Are you sure hashtags and ticker symbols work in Peepeth?

Woops! Reread my post and it did sound a bit ambiguous. What i meant was hyperlinking our ETH address to etherscan might seem a little invasive for some peeps.

I think I might have broken it. :( Right after I sent GAS to update my profile settings, Peepeth started acting up.

@ayunknown I agree, no better place than localhost ;)

He's doing good work for Toshi, so that's a well deserved Enso :)

It's a good idea to always use one eth or btc address solely for social. I treat my main account like my primary email address -- I don't hand it out unnecessarily. Everything else gets my secondary email address.

That's why I love Metamask. One private seed gives 10 wallet addresses -- use one for social and keep it funded with coffee money!

If I could make one suggestion, that would be to allow Toshi to support child wallets.

Enso it Hannah ;)

Haha, thanks! Are you a fan of APC or Tool?

There was a disclaimer before signing up that users should use a ETH account solely for Peepeth if they're concerned about exposing their wealth :)

I actually wanted to suggest to @bevan that the ETH address hyperlink out to etherscan.io directly, but figured it might be a little too stalkerish. What do you think?

Dude you have more ETH than me at the moment lol

You need to go listen to it on Spotify or on APC's official channel on YouTube, like now!

Haha, chill out. It's only 1 cent for a batch. It'll be a long time before you even hit $1.

I just listened to A Perfect Circle's 'Disillusioned' and 'The Doomed' and it's so beautiful I feel like weeping.

I think we're at 800+ users at the moment, with most of us coming over from Product Hunt, Hackernews, or r/ethereum. It probably explains the tech-centric posts. In other news, A Perfect Circle's new album will be out this Friday!

People are losing their minds because twitter is down. But it's all good for me on this side of the fence. dApp ftw!

I just discovered that following a user on Peepeth counts as 1 unsaved action. I think I like it -- prevents people from follow/unfollow habits.

Maybe it could be increased to something less minimalistic -- say 10 Ensos a day? I'm also curious as to when it gets reset. GMT/UTC?

Enso is a minimalist zen concept and signifies enlightenment. Limiting it to 1 Enso per day is a good way for a user to reward another user's post if it made their day! Unlike other social media where people give out likes all the time needlessly.

I think it's always great to reward content creators when they create useful and meaningful discussions. Similar to Brave/BAT and Steemit/Steem.

I don't really see a benefit to saving a batch to the blockchain quickly, so I just choose the cheapest option.

How much are you paying for a batch? My latest batch costs USD$0.05. Not that I'm complaining (it's cheap!), but I want to see if it's consistent with everyone else.

Ha! I try not to hog the airwaves, makes the feed clean for everyone else when I have nothing important to say. But that's just me!

Just checked 10 minutes ago and Cipher allows signing in. What about Toshi?

I just realised that batching 15 peeps cost me $0.01. This means $5 gives a user 500 batches worth of peeps. That's 7,500 peeps. I've been on twitter since '08 and I only have 2,400 tweets. Looks like $5 will go a long way!

That gives me more incentive to try out Toshi as well. We live in good times for social dApps. Who knows, we might be able to use the our same identity on Peepeth for any future social dApp?

Thanks for the tip Andrew!

I'm wondering whether Toshi will eventually replace Cipher, since both developers are now merging features into Toshi.

Coinbase is on a roll. They acquired Cipher a few days back, and today announced that earn.com will be joining them. Good times indeed for the blockchain!

I already have Cipher so I'll be testing Peepeth out on it. Will definitely keep a lookout for bugs.

That's the general consensus I'm getting from Reddit too :)

What do you guys use to browse Peepeth on iOS? Cipher?

I'm tempted to verify my Twitter identity too. Just wondering whether I should. On Mastodon, we used to avoid giving extra publicity to Twitter since the community believes in decentralization.

Thanks! Why didn't you claim @jack as your username?
