I'd like to see fair pricing for airlines tickets too.

These companies have enough resources and profit from these services to build teams dedicated for each platform

Thanks for your feedback. I will explore alternative to kickstarter as well.

True, when it breaks. It's annoying. Netflix has its own issues as well.

My small setup with 1gbps internet tunneled via cloudflare is super handy to be honest. Jellyfin, Frigate works with over 2 months of uptime without issue so far.

Thank you for your answer. Additional drives can be connected via USB. There are 4/5 bay case SATA to USB, some models come with RAID controller as well.

That’s an interesting perspective—thanks for sharing it! My thought was that having celebrities and influencers could help generate revenue in some way.

Interesting. Please share the link to your network.

By privacy-first, I mean that I won’t segment users based on their behavior for any purpose. There will be no ads on the network.

I hadn’t yet thought through specifics like “friend-post” or “public-post” modes, or whether non-users would be able to view public posts without an account.

Thanks for your comment! Honestly, I didn’t expect anyone to respond to such a vague post.

The reason I’d build this platform is to help people connect without the distractions of sponsored content or random memes. I stopped using Facebook about seven years ago because I wanted a space where I could simply engage with the people in my network and their thoughts. AdBlock helped for a while, but eventually, my feed filled with random posts from pages I hadn’t followed. I understand that Facebook’s goal is to keep users engaged, but the constant noise led me to switch to Instagram. Unfortunately, Instagram went down a similar path, especially with the rise of Reels.

Now, I mainly use WhatsApp groups to stay connected.

Why are celebrities and influencers on those platforms to begin with?

I considered a model where users could pay to access celebrity posts. It sounds similar to OnlyFans, but I see it as a potential revenue stream or, alternatively, a way to support a fixed monthly fee in exchange for privacy.
