On many occasions and projects I've been involved in social media and content platforms, content producing and importantly, business models. In my opinion everything is hard: getting traction, blocking/killing/avoiding bad content and making it financially viable to all the players.
World has now few killer "social/commercial platforms", including Facebook, Uber and Airbnb. They keep amazing me everyday. However, there is a chance that these mega successes are last of its kind, build by entrepreneurs turning into billionaires and financed by blue-chip Silicon Valley venture capitalists.
It might just be that in the future, the most powerful platforms are decentralised, financed by anyone who believes in them and build so that they distribute wealth more equally to all participants. You might be now browsing one of them. Maybe.
