Why Another Social Media App?
Why build yet another social media app? Why not?
I started this project to continue learning Ruby on Rails, to have a side project that I can switch to when my main project annoys me and I need a break from it.
Another big reason is that many of the popular apps have shifted to totalitarianism and fascism. I do not want to provide content or advertising revenue to these sites. While they are free to espouse their hatred, I do not agree with it. I will not use their platforms any longer.
