Exploring the idea of a decentralised social platform based on location.

cross-posted from: https://feddit.uk/post/10422101

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.

    The Home functionality could and probably would be used like Nextdoor is used, however categorisation would allow for niche interests that fall outside of general neighbourly discussion. The nearby functionality would result in functionality that I don’t believe Nextdoor offers, which is exploration focused.

    Additionally, it’s decentralised, which I don’t believe Nextdoor is.
