Bullish:

• $DESOC - Bullish on decentralized social media platforms that aim to make social networking more open and web-like, offering users greater choice, customizability, and the ability to exit easily.

  • “Our goal at the very high level is to make social more like the web. So we try to borrow web design principles, web protocols, wherever possible.”

  • “And so we we've thought about, like, the key things we want out of decentralization are choice and customizability because when developers can build, you have all these options and you want the ability to exit if somebody does something that you don't like.”
