Exploring the idea of a decentralised social platform based on location.

cross-posted from: https://feddit.uk/post/10422101

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.

      This is interesting.

      Did anyone try Mobilizon to tell what’s its UX from the geolocation perspective?

      Thanks

      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
