Over the past year or so I’ve been playing with the idea of a decentralised social platform based on your location. By putting physical location at the centre of the experience, such a platform could be used to bring communities together and provide a source of local information when travelling. Please let me know what you guys think.
you could just design an alogorithm that heavily favors any posts physically close to you. the closer they are, the higher in your feed.
I’d like to see this experiment carried out at a sufficient scale. I feel like there would be a benefit to a gravity like component that takes density and distance into account so that people in sparsely “populated” regions aren’t just effectively seeing an unprioritized feed of the entire network.
