RE: Benefits of having a social network on the Blockchain
because its decentralized
Ehhhh , not so fast there. I'm pretty sure it's centralized, no in fact I'm positive it's centralized as was demonstrated earlier today. ;)
If you want a decentralized social media platform download the Qora client.
Looks nice. But when you can do same thing in a browser, why bother downloading a client?
I'm no tech wizard so I'll state it in terms I understand. Qora runs in your browser, just like Steemit, but you need the client running for the decentralization. The client has a menu option to open up your browser and establish a connection to the blockchain, and everything after that is browser based while the client runs in the background. You can even make the client run as a background service.
If you have more technical questions, it would be best to contact Vrontis or one of the other devs in Qora's slack channel or BTT thread.
What happened earlier today?
