Part 7/19:
With mainstream platforms becoming increasingly monopolistic, Hotep Jesus discusses the importance of creating alternative avenues. He criticizes the lack of competition, reminiscing about past platforms like Myspace, which was overtaken by the rise of Facebook and Instagram. He emphasizes that meaningful innovation requires uniqueness—simply mimicking existing platforms is ineffective. Instead, he advocates for building specialized and focused tools, such as apps that circumvent censorship or monetize directly through blockchain-based solutions.
