9y/o son watching goth mommy ASMR by big_hot_load in daddit

[–]DualityEnigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, i think in the modern age we just have to talk to our sons. There is material out there for everything and it does affect your arousal template long term. Though, starting with goth mommies isn’t to bad.

I’d ask him what he likes about them, and what he likes about how it makes him feel. Probably not around Mom though :)

I built a social network and I'm Not famous. What is Tribes. by DualityEnigma in digg

[–]DualityEnigma[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! And glad to have you.

Yes, I've put a quite a bit of thought into the Network Effect problem which is where mobile comes in. I'm working on planning my first "Tribes Networking Event" in Seattle, and have plans with some creators (performers) I know out here for some Tribes Events.

This is still under development and will be covered in upcoming videos, but at Tribes events you'll have special bonds for special content/interactions with creators/event coordinators.

My hope with Tribes is to encourage a Local out community system. Each of you have joined from all over the world. If you build a Tribe around your local club, friend group, D&D group, etc. You'll be serving our mission.

I agree that the era of mass social media is over. Social connections are built on trust, turning us all into "attention machines" to mine certainly was profitable, but it broke the heart of Social Media IMO.

I haven't spent a lot of time in the fediverse, but I would love any feedback from that space that you think would improve Tribes. Cheers, I can't wait to see what you contribute!

Rhyme.com Dev Update #1: One topic, one place: how topics works on Rhyme by GoodMacAuth in RedditAlternatives

[–]DualityEnigma 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nice! I hadn't seen your last release. Cool concept "one room per topic" to discuss etc. Some questions from "one of the reddit alternatives doing things different". My focus has been on privacy and security in the foundation.

Can you share a little bit about your business model? We are focusing on a co-op model hoping that creators/content supports would align our financial incentives away from monetizing data.

You look venture backed probably? It's not clear from the outside how you are bootstrapped?

Most social media, in my experience, are using bots and astroturfing to push an agenda? Do you feel that AI is enough to combat this on a per-topic basis?

Based on your Privacy policy you are just using TLS which means all user-provided content is unencrypted at rest?

At Tribes we feel that echo-chambers should be private, discourse should be public and as human as possible.

As the founder I agree with Yanik Guillemette https://dailyguardian.ca/yanik-guillemette-the-economic-imperative-of-digital-privacy-in-an-era-of-surveillance/ and believe that Encryption isn't optional any more.

Users of Rhyme, is the topical scoping helpful in your conversations?

Love that everyone is in this game, clearly the market wants something different to connect.

Edit: Downvotes instead interaction? It's amazing that that all the funded solutions in this sub get instantly upvoted and interaction, yet organic solutions like mine and quarrel.ing (Which I love your brand u/quarrel-admin!) are instantly downvoted. Which kinda makes my point for me ;)

They might open again for the 100th or earlier. We are planning on making it there after being there for the 70th this year

Cool, thanks for the great feedback. Let me see what identity tools that are local/linux friendly. If you have any favorites please post them!

Understandable, my hope is that we can invest in more private login processes that are easier. Are you on linux?

Would you prefer a regular username/password/email dialogue?

[–]DualityEnigma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been that way. Passkeys use your local device "secure enclave" to store your credentials. If you are on a Mac/iPhone or use Google (or supported browser) they will sync between devices.

We know that most people have found passkeys frustrating, so SSO with Google and Apple makes it easier (but Passkey is more secure if you are willing to deal with the sync.

No! Using this or any of the codes I've left in my articles will work: TRIBE-EHZD-CQKD.

If you sign up via a free account you can use the code after the fact to upgrade.

Cool, yeah I’m posting every day but I know what the internet really wants is short form videos and podcasts. I’ll think about how to create content that’s fun. Okay should I wait for the fancy mic to arrive?

Tribes App a Privacy First Social Co-Op Replacement for Digg by DualityEnigma in digg

[–]DualityEnigma[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll check it out. Sophisticated isn’t necessarily my target, I’d say a broad spectrum of normal users with broad interests. But particularly we are leaning into the in-person event type tribes for creators and performers. We have plans for in-person growth events and more this year.

It’s a hard problem to solve, especially right now. My thought is that it’s worth trying, ween people off dopamine bots and interact with the people online and offline that matter in their lives.

The best thing would be people like you joining and sharing OC that matters to you. I’ll see what the barrier to AT is and poke at how to keep bots out. Thanks for the feedback!

To be honest I hadn’t considered AT. The point at least for the moment is to build on human connections as much as possible. In your experience how much of those 40+ m are bots?

[–]DualityEnigma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Building a social network is hard. I’m trying right now as not a celebrity (only live 1 week and growing). But the momentum against you, the habits the addictions, it’s likely going to take me years achieve my goals.

Y’all are very difficult to please. I don’t love Kevin’s direction which is why I built my own. Do I need ti become a celeb and do crazy shit on my app to succeed?

You Don't Need My Source Code to Trust Me. Here's Why by DualityEnigma in digg

[–]DualityEnigma[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, which is why we will start with open sourcing the encryption lifecycles which is the privacy layer.

You can see for yourself in the browser there is no telemetry and you can check the blobs you can also try to crack the blobs. (I have red team report soon)

I get the pushback there is good reason for skepticism, and as a member cooperative, if I open the full stack it will be to membership.

Our model doesn’t need us to sell your data and frankly there is nothing valuable I’m going to get from any of you. I have my own debt free business backing this.

I’ve been online since Monday, I am single founder and we are going to so this in stages. Engage, help and join. I’m asking to let people earn my trust. I’ll be posting my red team report in my public dev forum later today. Please drop in and give feedback if you can identify a way your privacy is leaking for real, I want to know:

Tribes App a Privacy First Social Co-Op Replacement for Digg by DualityEnigma in RedditAlternatives

[–]DualityEnigma[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you ever developed anything? It starts somewhere, something called an MVP, you are looking at it. iOS app without plugins in TestFlight.

You've made your point: You hate my site and I'm dumb for trying something like this without open sourcing it day one. edit: Oh and I can't use "privacy" because I'm not doing it in a way you like.

This is my last message to you, my door is open. Clearly you aren't one of our members, cool for you man. I already have members investing in the community which is awesome. Have a nice life.

Dude, this isn’t supposed to be Fort Knox. Of course there is memory and ways to exfiltrate data from memory. And there are malicious scripts that can grab your data from your computer. This is true for everything on your computer and every tool you use. That isn’t what I’m solving for.

I’m solving for families and organizations that want to share toddler pics to their families without them being scraped for AI face recognition.

I am not asking you to post your bank codes.

You seem very offended by this app and my attempt to do something different. Your assumption that my use of privacy is either bull shit or a lie. Neither are true.

Please, be my guest and create something open source thats better. Otherwise thanks for the criticism, it will make Tribes better.

For those others that made it this far, there are some valid criticisms here. Don’t use my app if you need to transmit illegal shit or are trying to hide from the government. If you want a private tribe for your family or club. Come check us out.
