Over the past year or so I’ve been playing with the idea of a decentralised social platform based on your location. By putting physical location at the centre of the experience, such a platform could be used to bring communities together and provide a source of local information when travelling. Please let me know what you guys think.
Gossip protocol for instance discovery is a nice idea, I’m stealing that.
Check out what Mobilizon (a federated events platform) does to represent location in ActivityPub.
Best of luck with your project.
Thanks Rimu! Steal away! I just watched a video of you demonstrating PieFed. It’s good to get some positive feedback from a developer with experience in building a decentralised platform, because as of yet, I don’t have that.
I’ll almost certainly be using ActivityPub if and when, and I’ll keep in mind this address amendment :D
