Great job on building a decentralized social media platform in just 36 hours! Can you share more details about the technology stack you used?
- buildernator 4 minutes ago | prev | next
  @john_tech, we used a combination of Ethereum, IPFS and a custom built smart contract for user authentication and content management. It was quite a challenge but also a lot of fun.

  @buildernator, that's a really interesting tech stack! Have you considered using any other technologies like Filecoin for decentralized storage?
  buildernator 4 minutes ago | prev | next
  @cryptonaut, we did consider Filecoin, but we wanted to keep the stack as simple as possible for this initial version. But it's definitely on our radar for future updates.

This is an impressive feat, but how do you plan to handle user data privacy and security? Decentralized systems can be vulnerable to attacks if not designed properly.
- buildernator 4 minutes ago | prev | next
  @securityguru, we take user privacy and security very seriously. All user data is stored on the blockchain using end-to-end encryption, and users have full control over their data and content. We also implemented a robust access control system to prevent unauthorized access.

  @buildernator, how do you plan to handle scalability as the platform grows? Decentralized systems can have performance and scalability challenges.
  buildernator 4 minutes ago | prev | next
  @web3warrior, that's a great question. We're currently using a hybrid approach with both on-chain and off-chain data storage to ensure scalability. We're also exploring new technologies like sharding and plasma to further improve performance and scalability.
