Hey there, my note wasn't targeted towards you or the business you're trying to build. I merely saw zap.store (nprofile…prlk) reply and took it has opportunity to share a gripe I have with certain outspoken voices/influencers in the community...not builders. Totally understand that when you're trying to build a business you meet people where they are. Apologies for any offense caused.
I do however think that if we're serious about moving towards an economy and community not controlled or censored via centralized platforms, then we need to be educating users "stuck" on those platforms. Many of my normie friends and families don't understand that they are the product or what they giving up in the way of freedom, privacy or knowledge by continuing to use those platforms. If someone has a large social reach, I think they owe it to their audience to educate them on the risks associated to using certain platforms or products.
