 Let's add:

- no ads
- no registration
- you own your content and identity
- you can bring your identity and data to hundreds of apps instantly without creating new accounts
- imagine Facebook Marketplace, Instagram, Twitter, Google Maps, Xbox Live, Apple Music, Reddit, and Cash App all rolled into one compatible ecosystem
- opt in to the algorithm you want, or get your content with no algorithm at all, or bring your own algorithm
- monetize literally any post you make
- sell stuff without the need to set up a store
