I have an idea for polls. What if we start using checkbox markdown in our posts i.e.
- [ ] Option 1
- [x] Option 2

and someone writes an extension to parse it all into HTML & register a click-event as a commented vote, also expressed in MD.

Similar idea: parse #lkie as hearts

Huh - never heard of WETH https://weth.io/.
Did you know that $ETH doesn't conform to it's own ERC20 standard?

Peep for free, y'all!
(in both senses of the word)

Well, for that specific example, there's numerous blockchain-backed companies starting up in the copyright/IP space that could serve that better, e.g. @myCopyrightBank (#sheep).

But absolutely, and I don't think many of us are used to or ready for it (I wasn't, and am still not)

Agree, that's something that has to be worked on.

Nice idea, and good choice in sharing it here - perhaps the Against Malaria badges can be expanded into more of this 'sticker' system (& diff. charities/value). I like the idea of businesses being built off/around ecosystems like Peepeth & contributing to pro-social goals

@itsarnavb welcome!

Nice work... can't see, but there may be a problem with my heavily extension-addled Chrome :)

#cwc it is!
and starting off early. Noice. (that means 'nice' by the way, downunder slang)

Lots of fun for that though. What's life without risk and a little bit of skin in the game?

Most importantly, no delete.

(My understanding:)
Even if Peepeth.com catastrophically fails, the peeps live forever on the ETH network. That means ETH has to fail for our peeps to be destroyed. It's almost certain your peeps will outlive you & your other online activity.

This is where the smart contract comes in - anything can read it, and anything can post to it. It lives on the blockchain. This means:
*Posts last forever. No delete
*People who don't like peepeth.com can go make their own front-end with different rules
*Moderation is viewable /3

There is also a necessary place for negatives, criticism, chaos, nonsense, creativity, aggression, politics. I personally reckon that without these, forced "positivity" becomes more&more like tyranny/unequal censoring, which we're seeing with a few of the big social platforms /2

@pluma gives a good explanation here of the filtered front-end/open back-end of Peepeth.

Best way I can describe it: Human brains have a natural negativity bias. We're trying to make positive/useful/considerate/good-intentioned posts the path of least resistance.

But... /1

Agree. Tricky issue. It's a solution that will improve with time.

I see it as a complement - an evolved version of Twitter that is better designed and more efficient. And long lasting. You can literally post whatever you want, but you can't take posts back. Remember, Peepeth.com is not the only frontend. If you can code, you can build your own.

💯

Wow, nice work dude!

Oh lol - mixed up following with followers. Still 48 to go. But I guarantee you none of them are bots.

Huh, I have more followers on Peepeth than Twitter now. Cool.

Good idea @aribo! and welcome :)

^ yep, this - scammers are very clever.

Just set up TweetDelete.net to delete all Tweets 2+ weeks old.

@bevan, we don't just #lkie you, we #lvoe you

And of course:

sheep:
(noun) a shared peep
(verb) to share a peep
examples:
"I sheeped my latest photo to Twitter"
"What's your sheep-to-xeep [exclusive peep] ratio?"

(can we make this official @Bevan?)

Peepers/Peeple = large group of individuals.
"Peepers gonna peep."
peep(s) = post(s) on Peepeth
"I #lkie @layton's peeps."
Peeps = smaller, close-knit group of individuals.
"Sup, Peeps?"

That's my distinctions, anyway. @CallMeGwei @abcoathup thoughts?

Ooh, I can't not give props to a sexy domain like https://principles.design. Nice work @dsgnprinciples - I'm inexperienced to contribute, but I like this format.

Good quote re: "Excitement for new technology should improve lives and not create more problems."

Great idea! And/or creative commons shortcodes?

Hahaha, I'm just glad we have a group going.

@math - good idea to make Telegram for general chat. But I think for the biggest posts i.e. takeaways, analysis, it's worth putting on Peepeth. Think how cool it will be for people in 100 years to see what we were reading....

👌

Woot, #lkie! We going with Capitalism without Capital then?

An actual peep for posterity:
I’m sorry about the tremendous waste we’re creating with plastic garbage. I’m sorry for the fact that me and my household put the mass of an entire person into landfill every week. We will only experience a fraction of the damage we’re giving you.

Subscribed, rated, and reviewed @APompliano. I’m only happy to, your crypto summaries are better than anyone else’s I’ve come across.

How to ask a favour:

*Be direct, don't ask "are you free" or "do you have spare time"
*Make the person feel needed
*Give a reason why
*Provide an opportunity to escape

Peep community who have lived in Thailand (specifically Chiang Mai) - what’s it like? Do you recommend it as a place to live?
