Looking for a social platform that:
- figured out how to do content moderation (hate, bullying,...)
- doesn't limit the length of posts & comments
- allows people to moderate comments on their posts
- favors meaningful, substantial discussions over invective
There is Facebook 😉!

This morning, I wanted to extend my most devout prayers and deepest thoughts to the victims of the bear maulings at Heritage Village Retirement Community and their friends and loved ones. This was a terrible and senseless tragedy that could not have been avoided.

This is the most concise, comprehensive and clearheaded critique of blockchain and cryptocurrencies that I’ve seen. Most of it isn’t new, but it puts it all in one place, in plain English and comes from someone who is an authority on all of this.
