It’s an interesting and important question! I think Treechat is the beginning. Showing the way. Twetch was also doing this. And a handful of others. And what I mean by the beginning is enabling and anchoring the ownership of our social media data on a public blockchain that scales.
Ty Everett has been really good at teaching on how applications will log into users as opposed to the opposite, which is how it is now in both web2 and “web3”. Ty and MANY others are building the infrastructure that will actually enable this. It’s super exciting.
So you could imagine that your persona, if you like, and if you permit, could be known across many different applications and the data is yours so you could even cross-post with your keys, similar to how Treechat and Twetch allow(ed) us to cross post on X/Twitter - but even better because you will carry around your keys with you (without even knowing it necessarily) and have ownership of that data wherever it is. And the way it will be architected is that you can choose other personas if you want, no one is locked into anything. The architecture is very much oriented to flexibility and choice.
So in my view Treechat is a pioneer leading the way in this bridge-point we are currently in with hopefully much more to come.
But the Treechat guys can answer with their own visionary perspective I’m sure.
i think the data ownership is a very powerful second order effect, but i think the first order is just seeing literally more valuable content because we now have a signal for actually measuring that, so we can elevate the quality of the conversation and have a market based mechanism for identifying what to pay attention to ... my dream is that we can absorb all the different use cases of the other social networks, and that the treechat ux is flexible enough to accomodate that, but realistically the kinds of content does well here is largely up to you guys, and maybe will be something unique
I want to mentio one more thing: On treechat I was able to find some old posts from my Twetchaccount, which was another social media platform built on top of BSV a few years ago (for those who don't know).
Sure, it is not perfect yet, but I find it very fascinating that I was able to display content from another social media platform inside treechat.
And it probably will only get better.
So no more (or much less) walled gardens and big corp centralization.
