It may look quite good at first glance but it has a number of glaring issues. Lets begin with the founder: he’s mexican and his name is Esteban and is a known criminal. He created Seedit using funds he obtained from crime. He is not to be trusted.
Then of course are the problems with the platform itself. The obvious are it takes far too long to load. Its buggy and the ui awful and outdated. To make a community you have to host it on your own computer and keep it online forever. There’s no sufficient mod tools, not even a mod queue. There’s no reliable way to ban someone because they can just change their ip. The name is dumb. It doesn’t even use normal sounding urls for the communities, you have to use some crypto url. A mod can ban the whole community and no one can do a single thing. People may use subs for piracy. And of course the obvious no can even post on the default subs because to post you need to be whitelisted and how do you get whitlelisted? You have to message the scammer dev on a different platform. And this costs money to do.
That’s not even going into the crypto side of things. They’ve launched with seedit a scam coin because they think you’re easy to fool and easy to scam. The dev says the crypto is optional, he says social media tipping is expected in social media, he says you can use coins that are not Plebbit to tip like BTC. I’m here to tell you he is a liar and he will make his crypto scam entwined with the platform so we are forced to use it. He then says if he does implement forced crypto features then we can fork it because its opensource. And to that I call him a liar, never ever trust a crypto scammer.
And yes I lost too much money for having different ENS and being an exit liquidity for the plebtoken
This is a warning don’t be fooled by platforms that on the surface look good. They’re usually led by malicious devs with malicious intent. Seedit is a convulted crypto scam using a reverse funnel system and do not go anywhere near it. He’s opensourced it on github but its obvious it contains crypto and maybe even viruses. Never fall for scams. Stay safe.
From the beginning, the goal was not building an actually decentralized social media, but building an unmoderated hellhole for extremism.
don’t be fooled by platforms that on the surface look good.
But it didn’t look good on the surface. I’m sorry you fell for it, but the warning signs were there.
No need to kick them while they’re down. They recognized they made a mistake and used that to warn others
I would advise editing the first part a bit. You start off with “he’s <demographic>” - like that clears something up.
He never said the truth
Sometimes he claims he is from Mexico , USA…Nigeria… And and would like to remain anon but recognizable only by single AI picture !
Then I would edit it to “he claims he’s Mexican”.
My initial pass at it was racism and I would like to assume that wasn’t your intent and didn’t want it to detract from the rest of your discussion points.
I didn’t mean that
