Hello Blockstackers!
Our team is developing a fresh dApp on Blockstack called Huddle. We are launching on Product Hunt next week, so make sure to visit the link at the end of this post to stay updated!
Huddle is a platform for decentralized social groups, reaching far beyond the confines of Facebook Groups. Like you, we’ve used current social media platforms to keep us connected. They’ve been great places to interact with our friends and share our ideas too. We started to question: why do we have to sacrifice privacy or quality to do this? Newsflash: we don’t! The Huddle team is putting a new spin on social media after identifying the importance of these things:
- Privacy: Centralized entities, like Facebook, have shown a clear disregard for responsible and ethical data management along with censor-free tactics.
- Niche communities: The desire for compatibility and similarity creates a desire to interact with and learn from like-minded individuals, leading to a more organized experience that sorts through the “noise.”
- User experience: We believe the adoption of blockchain-powered applications relies on a sound user experience and fluid user interface.
- Identity management - Effective profile and identity management across a new internet is possible using the foundation of Blockstack.
- Credibility: Misinformation is taking the online world by storm, so we’ve made the credibility issue a major focus of our social platform.
Phew, I know that was a mouthful! You probably thought halfway though - is this a Ted Talk? Jokes aside, I hope I provided some insight on what we’re building. Here’s a rough wireframe sneak peek that doesn’t even have the iPhone notch elements. It’s just mean to help you visualize!
I will make sure to update this thread with launch and feature updates. As always, we welcome feedback and conversation if you’d like to provide input or chat more! Thank you so much for your support
