Updates
- I did a thorough research work on deploying the flutter app as a PWA
- I did many required changes
- Removing mobile device specific dependencies
- Updating the code to support PWA
- Updating assets, images for PWA
- Configuring Firebase Hosting
- There are many changes yet required to add necessary functionality like
- Login
- Up vote
- All other chain actions
- UTF-8 Character support research work
- YouTube video player research work
This time, instead of updating the versions for iOS & Android app, I've deployed it as PWA

Yes. That's intentional 🎉 ⌚️
Tested and gave feedback in DM about font size and author blog page needing you to disable the one page view for desktop.
Are you also a hive witness?
I am a witness on Blurt, DTube, Hive, Serey 😆 (On TMAC too)
Personally I wouldn’t vote a witness that was also a witness elsewhere especially on a platform like hive with totally different values but that’s just my personal opinion.
I understand & respect your decision.
My GOAL is clear & I remind it to me everyday.
GOAL
I respect every platform. If you see true user-base, they are on every decentralised platform.
My return question to you - One platform is equal to centralisation, isn't it?
My End Goal is for Users. Platforms paves the way for it.
it's too conflicting imo to be a witness of multi platforms which, are all competitive, it's almost impossible to serve one in a none biased way. I think one could create apps for them all but not have the best interests of each at heart. Just my opinion but I would never ever vote a witness on blurt who was also a hive witness and probably not even a serey one tbh even though I have no issues with serey and will no doubt join when I get a chance
For your kind info, @megadrive is a hive witness too. Do you think he is also at conflict?
maybe it won't bother some people, it's just my personal opinion it is a big conflict of interest especially considering the nefarious actions that go on on hive, although it could be a conflict of interest on serey. Like what if there was a decision to be made on one platform that could hurt another, how would one vote? Personally I think ppl should only be witness on one platform. But obviously I am not the only voter.
yeah I defo do and he has taken some bad advice from hive watchers before, i haven't voted for him either and it did put me off knowing he was a hive witness.
Consider the Cosmos billion dollar ecosystem of multiple chains, check this out https://mapofzones.com/ there are many chains interconnected with IBC bridges and oftentimes validators(witnesses) validate multiple chains if not all of them and in this ecosystem this is totally acceptable, only the Graphene space has been taught to be tribal, the industry is going multi-chain so I encourage witnesses to witness whatever chains they like, they can even learn new things to apply here.
Well it is tribal and it’s the way it’s become making it to me a conflict of interests. Of course if every single person on these platforms loved sharing, open source and loved seeing the other platforms grow too it might not be so bad but we know that’s not true lol we have people from hive witnesses or I think marky has been one at some point even coming over here and dragging blurt constantly, not that we don’t rlt do the same back but it’s hardly like everyone's caring and sharing lol
Over time they will see the light or get left behind. The world is evolving, we need to interconnect and grow outside of the Graphene bubble, Hive is welcome to evolve and collab with us in future. Crypto is about freedom, including freedom of association.
Like I said everyone chooses who they vote for on their own principles. Isn’t that ok? I personally do not vote for anyone who’s a witness elsewhere especially hive who has to me terrible morals as a platform. We already had some incident with taking advice from hive watchers if I remember.
Hive is fine as a platform technology wise, it’s (some) people that steer it that leave the gaping moral gap, not all of Hive is bad, not all is good. Blurt is mean’t to be good but we have a whale problem too.
Oh Yes I am. Please don't forget to vote for me.

I'm going to be brutally honest. The site is ugly as hell. If that's what I was introduced to Blurt via, I'd laugh it off and never come to it. There's large empty spots. Reading on it feels like I've been transported 20 years back and the site was designed by a kid. The lazy loading of images just causes more problems than it solves since they take forever to just load(thought that part might be the image server not being globally distributed, it took me about half a second to load each image). I can't share links to the posts as it's all just 1 url and they don't change. How am I supposed to tell my friends, "check out this cool thing I saw" when I don't know if they can even find the post. A lot needs to be done for this to improve.
Hello,
what do you understand by the term "decentralised social media"?
To what extent is social media decentralised? What would you say if I told you that there is no decentralised organisation?
Greetings.
At least, there is progress. It is a journey. It can’t be achieved overnight.
Let me beg to differ.
There can be no progress in getting de-centralized because where people work together, there is always a central place where things are decided. If you are running for witness, you shall know that.
So, in order to come to terms with each other I would still like to know, what you understand by this term "decentralized social media". I cannot read minds :)
I am so happy about what you are doing. Maybe you should also add motivating young DEVs like myself too. When I see your works I also get encourages to do more as a young Dev.
