The Solution

Decentralized social media is an opportunity for the public to take back control over what gets cultural attention. To end the outsized influence of money over what information, ideas and art is widely known and discussed. What people are reading, watching and listening to. That by each of us deciding what to share with others, we can collectively make the best stuff go viral.

To make that happen, we need to build a lot more new technology but also change some unhelpful norms. We need to be welcoming to as many people as possible. We need to up our game as critical media consumers and spreaders.
