Decentralized Social Media network

Decentralized social networks works on to run servers independently , rather than on a centralized server owned by a business. Users get more control and autonomy in Decentralized social networks. Any user can set up their own social network and determine how it operates and what users can say.

Decentralized networks are made in a much more distributed pattern . Within the network functions each node work as a separate single authority with independent decision-making power regarding how it interacts with other systems. These networks also supply processing power and other workload functions among all connected servers with in the same network.

Mastodon, Steemit, D tube, Synereo are some examples of decentralised social media networks.

Centralized social media network

Centralized social media means a social media that is controlled by a central authority. And you do not feel free on such social media .your entire social media account belongs to the single authority that is to the centralized system. Your all activities , conversation, can be monitored by Centralized system. Their team can block all your records and accounts at any time without . Or we can say in other words the media where the user is allowed to create an account but does not give user full authority to voice on this media as they wish.

The most popular centralized social media include Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn etc.

Question no 2 :

Which One is The Future of Social media ? Decentralized or centralized Social media.(answer must be written in own words)

First, centralized social media projects were produced . They gave users a little freedom. Users were bound by central authority, they were expressing themselves, sharing, producing and interacting with content. Then media projects emerged with social media networking.

The negative aspects of social media, which was the control authority to center later, also emerged. That prevented the users from feeling free enough.
user-generated content and the generated money was earn by social media . That was a problem here.This should have been stopped. Nowadays , users have started to earn money from their content, but the majority of the money was earn by social media company.

In 2016, a revolution occurred in the social media world and Decentralized net working started with Steemit. On this social media Users started to create content, share and interact without any central authority pressure. They would earn cryptocurrency STEEM /SBD from the content they produced. They would also sell these cryptocurrencies on stock exchanges and earn fiat money. Their money was not shared by social media that was great.

Now a days, all developments /projects are towards increasing the freedom of users. In my opinion the future of social media projects will be on the decentralized social media. Because , users express themselves better in decentralized social media. They earn 100% of the money that they earn from media . They do not have to share any percentage of the money they earn with any company.

Decentralized social media is not as popular right now. People are not yet aware of decentralised social media and haven't discovered the advantage of it. As users know the advantages of decentralized social media, they will obviously start using decentralized social media.
