We’re super excited to announce social media in Peergos. We’ve been planning this for years and we’ve now got an initial release out.

The model is simple. Every post is a file in Peergos, and uses the built-in encryption and access control to share with others.
Nice work! I joined today and tried it out!
The platform looks very promising. I really like the calendar option and the fact that the development team seems to be composed of actual scientists.
However, there doesn’t seem to be a crypto currency payment option for “Pro”.
Thanks for the feedback, @ipfsme. The lack of crypto payment options is mainly a lack of development resources - we’re flat out at the moment building out features and applications.
I understand there may be mixed feelings in the crypto-sphere about bitpay. However, many of the services I’ve used that accept crypto utilize bitpay.
There’s also coinbase … As far as I remember, epik registrar uses coinbase payment processor, and that’s been one of the most seamless payment experiences I’ve had as a crypto paying customer.
However, a simple donation address might get a few hits too.
Tried it out. Will be sending some feedback soon.
In general, the concept seems promising but the functions are pretty clunky. I really would love to see this grow and succeed.
Thanks! Yep the UI is definitely very clunky and needs a lot of work. We’ve focused on the protocol and its implementation so far. Lots of design work to come on the UI front.
