RE: Name YOUR decentralized social network?
What did you think of my “EDIT#3” rationalization for Stor as the name name for storage, music, and videos?
In light of that, I have another name contender for you: eternl.com
Actually I had thought of that too. I would just go for eternal.com
and eternal.app
is I were interested. I just think Immortal is a much better name, because it implies personal immortality. Eternal could apply to the data on the ledger, but people don’t tend to think through the backend infrastructure of how things they use actually work. Also it has a negative association to burning in hell eternally.
Would be useful to be able to toggle between upvote order and chronological thread order.
Agreed. The list of missing features is very long.
While having a slight reservation over it being close to Storj, though preferring the above spelling, I agree that...
and it does seem rational in anticipation that...
and that...
I'm not up on all the technical considerations you are aware of, but hopefully understanding the gist of what you're saying, it does make sense.
It also has a swagger and confidence about it which will probably appeal.
And regarding Eternal:
Yes, the word "eternal" can be associated with that, though a negative take on immortality could still be connected to a form of hell! Though I'll concede that most people see the concept as utopian rather than dystopian.
I don’t think Storj can compete and remain relevant. We’ll see.
Will users be willing to go find music and videos on a non-descriptively named site such as Stor? With Yahoo Music and Google Play as the #2 and #3 sites for music, I think the answer is affirmative. Ditto Yahoo Screen rising to the #4 video site. Google Play was apparently switched on in January 2014. The convergence between videos and music is underway.
Yeah many people yearn to be a super wealthy until they get there and realize they’re still not happy. So yeah the grass is always greener on the other side of the mountain until we get there.
EDIT: someone suggested to me:
Good idea. Yeah let’s hang on to the domains we have.
