This is an interesting subject because I believe in open and permission ledgers but also value privacy and security. The question I am trying to posit myself is where the line is, where should privacy be?
I have thought a lot about how I might be able to do this, I am a stats nut so I love to see charts and have wondered how we will be able to use the value that has been added to Hive, and evolve it. Machine learning offers opportunities to do this and I have had some very interesting conversations with GPT-J recently.
I would like to see options in the future for privacy by default, allowing users to reveal just a snapshot of certain information that they would like to make public. This is a conversation for another day @pharesim but,
You have my curiosity about your project. I do like to be able to search and find my own posts, Facebook actually had a really handy search that they nuked because it was too powerful. You could type "Friends of my friends" + "who like Metallic" + "and live in Los Angeles" or many combinations.
I want to get my front end back up after the fork, and have a few ideas about what I would like to do. Not just a community but an interface that shows a lot of this type of data you are talking about. Ways to show charts, display Hive-Engine tokens and other real-time chain data. I want to incentivize curating the new content in a way that is gamified. Unique user experiences are important, what sets Hive apart?
There is also an argument to be made that we don't want to reinvent the nightmare that social medias web2 has become, like a feedback loop that turns us into products. I am very interested to see how Machine Learning can be applied to enhance our experience and make info retrieval quicker and more accurate.
Lots to think about, I need to go but I will think about this more today.
I totally agree with that. It has to be the user's choice.
I like the way you think and hope we can cooperate in the near future!
