If I had to put these ten points into a single point, it is this: the future of social won't be more of the same. And I think this is a good point. And if I had to characterize these ten points with a single observation, it would be this: these ten points are the dead ends we've reached with existing social. We've learned centralization doesn't work. It needs to support diversity. It won't be based on a single identity. It won't be standards-based or blockchain-based. And it will be simple to set up and run. Image: Pew.
