I've been tossing this over for a while now on Akasha and now here, and I get that the blockchain is forever; what I don't get is why intelligent approaches to iteration are so lacking. Why shouldn't someone be able to edit a post and simply have the old version available?
@abcoathup has advocated for versioning functionality.
I, too, think it would be an excellent approach.

been pretty skeptical of Ethereum gaming so far, but cracked and picked up some pre-sale cards for Gods Unchained. pretty excited to get into another TCG since my Pokemon/Yu-Gi-Oh days, 15-20 yrs ago.
Long time, no see @cruz.
Hope all is well.

First Post Peeps! Gullfoss WaterFalls, Iceland
Amazing!
Very glad to have you on Peepeth. Welcome.

Wow looks yum share the recipe if you can
Are open-source bakeries a thing?
OMG... @pluma... there you go! The Open Source Bakery!
Go go go! Crowdfund, asap! Baking on the blockchain. This is just too good. ;-)

Yes after Vitaliks entry and lets hope the Peepeth platform gets bigger
Not to be a downer, but he also joined Leeroy and never used it. Of course Leeroy didn't have the super-cool post-to-Tweet feature at the time (@cruz was working on one)...
I'm afraid we will just have to keep growing regardless of Vitalik's activities here. We won't wait! ;-)
Hey, you... YEAH YOU!
Remember that time that YOU contributed to dethroning closed social networks. The ones getting rich off of peoples data and using their concentrated wealth and influence to make more money at all costs...
Of course you do. IT'S RIGHT NOW.
You're awesome.

Are peeps peepin on this thing or what?
So many fine Peeple are peeping on this thing that you might just... peep yourself.
Welcome.

Wow, thanks for the responses! Glad the Peepeth community is alive and supportive! Right now the project could use more people speaking on development, mining, and how blockchain can empower people in struggling economies. Being based in Los Angeles is a definite plus.
Great community here. Really, most of the crypto space in general. Of course you run into a fair-share of get-rich-quick types... but if you look for people *involved* in the space, they're generally hopeful the world can be a better place and that blockchains might get us there.

Welcome to Peepeth, Zach! I wish it were that simple. However, until alternatives or recycled plastic can come in at the same cost as new plastic, there is going to be a demand. What ideas do you have to create alternatives/recycle, etc? #welcome
Reproduce... less?
Teach people to respect the planet, which normally means satisfying their basic needs first. Focus on income inequality, education, transparency, and responsibility... most people don't want to trash the planet if they (can afford to) stop and think about it.
Just mulling over what makes something "valuable" and how the relates to "captured value" ... prompted by this thread:
https://twitter.com/RyanSAdams/status/1022114398683508736
Curious what you Peeple think. Random/Tangential thoughts/reflections also appreciated.
If the Ethereum and Bitcoin blockchains were both frozen at their current scaling levels - would the latter be a better "store of value" ? Scaling frozen: what if the hashrates became equal, would the answer change?
Is being less ambitious more valuable given tech hurdles?
🤔🧐

I want free peeping for all. With no ETH required. Setting up a new account on GitHub/twitter to then verify is a hoop with no value. It’s only valuable if that account has value/reputation. I like the bond idea but then ETH is required again.
So we're sorta on the same page... well, as far as the hoops go.
So you'd ideally like no ETH requirement, just a private key and some metamask signing? ...hmmm...

Looking for people to interview for a cryptocurrency/blockchain documentary. Any interesting stories?
Fly to Kansas City, sit around the fire pit and interview @jtnichol - as a mod of ethtrader he's seen a lot. Also, just a nice guy.
Blockchain is so broad - are you looking to interview devs, users, speculators, traders, cryptography experts, crypto-economists, game theorists...

IC thanks, This moment I see only this indeed. Let mee see how to solve this, nice lesson.
Yep, because you are not "logged in"/haven't set up your Peepeth identity on your Toshi wallet.
BE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR TOSHI SEED WORDS before you mess with it, if you've already been using Toshi. It only supports one wallet / identity at a time. Alternatively, use Trust wallet.
Replying to @Goosie (0x3b04596aa915e2d808ce2be365199ab2424381aa)
Yess, I create a post on my laptop by going to peepeth.com. But on my mobile where I have Toshi and launch Peepeth from there, I don't see a post button?
If all goes well, and both wallets are using the same keys - then you'll see this when you log in on mobile:

You need to get your Mobile wallet and your Desktop Wallet (MetaMask) using the same Ethereum address.
This isn't too hard. Just import your wallet into Toshi. Then when you go to Peepeth on mobile you should see your account and be able to post.
Replying to @Goosie (0x3b04596aa915e2d808ce2be365199ab2424381aa)
It's in dutch but will be translated into English.
So, are you already posting from Toshi? Is that where you set up your Peepeth account?

Kudos to the team behind this platform - exploring alternatives to existing social media platforms and so far I am really digging Peep. Let's take back our social experience!
Here, here!
The team is @Bevan - but he has lots of Peeple cheering for him and standing by to help.

Does GitHub verification qualify for free peeping?
I'm a little confused about how making users jump through an extra hoop - ie making a brand new Github/Twitter to qualify for free peeping - is better than just making them solve a captcha or something... or post a small ETH bond.
What is actually being achieved?
Replying to @Samuel (0xc338edddc7c624e9bd2b6162fb7ecda904a81ce1)
Why did it get removed?
From their Twitter:
"While @googlechrome has taken MetaMask down from their @ChromeDev store without notice or explanation..."

I wouldn't advocate for banning tobacco. You're right, it would probably just create a black market. However, I fully support the warning labels and awareness campaigns. Since we can't ban a smart contract anyway, the best we can do is warn potential victims about the risks
I think we are very much on the same page.
🧐

I thought I might see a face behind the brand but the brand continues. 😀
Hey! Aren't you the one that told me... we are all a brand?
... I have been contemplating writing as myself under the CallMeGwei brand. Lots of outlets shy away from listing articles by "anonymous" authors and apparently the pseudonym Call Me Gwei can't fly under the radar.
🤔
Replying to @Will_Way (0x691f98b2b64b6cc00774beb0ebfa115f516a9eb8)
I'm certain there have been entire books written trying to answer that question. Even if we had an answer, there's not any way to stop it as far as I'm aware. This is the price, and the benefit of decentralization. Here's hoping the pros far outweigh the cons.
I'm right there hoping with ya!
I genuinely think that they will prove to be...
Replying to @Will_Way (0x691f98b2b64b6cc00774beb0ebfa115f516a9eb8)
I'm all for freedom, but I can't support predatory structures. Sure, some people are just gambling. But you know other people will lose their life savings on this. Same as any ponzi/pyramid. Should people be free to get involved with and spread a ponzi scheme that hurts others?
If warning labels are good enough for cigarettes... then being openly transparent about ponzi schemes seems... at least as cautionary.
The consequences of participation may very likely be bad - as long as it isn't hidden, allow people the freedom to exercise their own agency.

I mean, look at tobacco products. Plastered with warning labels in most jurisdictions and people still use them. If we made it "illegal" what percent of people would still use tobacco products? What percent would shift to other unhealthy substances instead?

Would we be genuinely helping anyone by stripping away their freedom of choice?
I *completely* understand your sentiment and am generally bent in that direction myself. But if people wish to participate in "bad" behaviors, they will always prevail in finding ways to do so...
@bevan, Peepeth points seem to be off a bit... since Mosquito badges alone are worth 25 points now.
Also, if Peeple verify on Twitter and Github... shouldn't both little red icons show next to their names in the main feed?
Replying to @abcoathup (0x13ebd3443fa5575f0eb173e323d8419f7452cfb1)
Verified
Me too! Thanks for highlighting the feature.
And, of course, thank you, Bevan for building it.
Now, I just need to use my Github account for something aside from verification!

Deliberate typo as an example?
Oh, yeah... of course...
Completely intentional as an illustrative example...
🤥
Replying to @Mistra (0x000500b81c9b361ed7d4daebc184029ec3b402f1)
Well if you can yes, thank you. But why can just dev modify it? (and actually why can dev modify my things without my private key?)
Wonderful question, indeed. That's the spirit!
I'm sure the answer is not nefarious in the least... as @Anton suggests...
Replying to @jeffownby (0xbc1e57d899e69fd6e0eabd7841fa5d44b41f5413)
Typo on my first Peep. This is going to be a riot.
It's kinda of liberating *not* being able to delete and redo a posting.
Your proceed carefully and then you commit. And life goes on. No do-overs. It is what it is.
*Word on the street was that unsigned Peeps would be editable at some point prior to being signed/saved on chain.
Replying to @Bevan (0x30755d3e65c0cf46c35b72d11e52d941c5fc3a3e)
I can fix this for you. Would you like your username to appear as @mistra? The names are actually not case sensitive, so it's just a stylistic change.
How does it get fixed? Where does it get fixed? Does it get fixed for every front end pulling in the username?
...just curious...
Replying to @Will_Way (0x691f98b2b64b6cc00774beb0ebfa115f516a9eb8)
Even if the contract never gets broken, Fomo3D is still a transparent ponzi scheme. You get paid with other people's loss. At some point, the game will end, and a large number of people will lose.
I'm not a big fan of these kind of "games" - but if it thrills people... they should have the freedom to participate.
Transparency and freedom - as glad as I am to have them in this space - constantly leave me scratching my head... is that really what people want?
🤷
Replying to @Lex (0x11668c9934c52da70b8dbf96143c73337ae07910)
Finally got around to setting up this thing through Toshi, perhaps I can be more active now! I've heard people that use Cipher too, is there much difference between the two?
Cipher was acquired by Toshi... so Toshi will likely be more like Cipher was as time goes on. Check out Trust, too - also very popular and coded by a resident Peeper.

Testing Peepeth (http://peepeth.com) for the first time! Lots of things I'm impressed by! * Good UI * "Opinionated features" * Charity stickers, going to the Against Malaria Foundation https://peepeth.com/malaria * Ability to peep and tweet at the same time
A little late to greet you, but rather pleased to see you here at last.
I think you'll fit in quite well with this crowd. 😉
The world needs projects like these - & open social media protocols generally. Inspiring first iterations, I think.
Anyway, welcome. Don't be a stranger?

@callmegwei Hi there! Sorry for delay, here's the lists of crypto-friendly places in Tokyo. I have referred informations on the web to made this, then selected some of them. If you got any question, just tell me. https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmcXJnoVZPfx7QmzDNk7j1PMWovqKVdYHB68gFiBpooEb1

Welcome back! I was thinking the same today; time is precious and fleeting. @voyager has an epic and ongoing #acrossRomania series. We have some wonderful new peepers. Some new features and fixes are on the way, and a crowdfunding campaign is in the pipeline.
Crowdfunding. Can't wait to hear all the details!
Apparently, I've been gone almost three weeks... What have I missed? Somebody catch me up. Also, where did all that time go? Please fill me in on that too...

Just updated my homepage at http://jamesv.dk/ ... It's funny how much enjoyment I get out of making it as barebones as possible... no JS at all, minimal CSS, only 3 pages total. <i>Also, added a little link to my Peepeth :)</i>
Nice and simple. But... no https. Check out https://letsencrypt.org/

I don't understand the snobbery elitism that goes on in crypto and prefer to be kept out of this type of energy. Let's keep it 100 and respect everyones opinion. I don't agree with some tokens/coins but it's all good and do you, what you put your money in is your business.
I'm inclined to agree with this.
*However* - some "projects" are more or less thinly veiled attempts at defrauding people who have not done their due diligence. These "bad apples" could set back the entire space.
This is a very ideological space- and that's great! Just be nice.

Tax on social media use goes live in Uganda on Sunday.
What is the justification for this tax? Are people protesting?
Replying to @Shigako (0x1e524685f67e065165fe7f179e97433ec07b0fc4)
It's okay, I'm enjoying researching. I guess BTC-friendly places are many, but for ETH we have only a little. More places are okay with XEM, interestingly. MONA, a Japanese crypto, seems to also have core fans. Research continues!
Well, now that is interesting about XEM and MONA! Can't wait to hear more about it (as long as it's not a bother for you).
Thanks, Shigako.

Bike is ready for #acrossRomania. Now, let's see if I should bring this one. It's been years since I've traveled with it.
Looking forward to you documenting this on Peepeth. Safe travels.
