Ask HN: Thoughts on this social platform and self-hosting your social profiles?

1 points by ivopetkov ↗ HN
I'm in the tech world for many years, and I've seen the birth of many social platforms, the good, the bad, and the ugly. I love the fact that I own my websites 100% and my email 100%, and I wanted to own my social profile 100%. So a few months ago I started researching and building, and with some help, I've managed to build something I really like.

I would like to show it to you and have your honest feedback because there are a lot of things that can be improved - it was hard to stop and just release v1.0 :P

It's open-source of course, and more info is available at about.dotsmesh.com

My own self-hosted profile is available at dotsmesh.com#ivo if you want to take a look at the current UI.

I'll be glad to discuss with you the idea of self-hosting social profiles, the implementation, and everything else you like.

The end goal is to build the best possible open social platform.
