What is PeakD?

The fusion of decentralization with the novel concept of "cryptographic keys" grants individuals authentic ownership of their content. In contrast to traditional social media platforms that seek to keep users dependent on their infrastructure, this method provides an unprecedented degree of autonomy within the digital realm. Your contributions, such as posts and comments, exist independently of PeakD or similar services, ensuring that only you, as the key holder, can alter or improve your content. This empowers users not only to create their own communities but also to choose a community-driven approach. Within this system, PeakD acts as a supportive partner in nurturing and advancing your community. Moreover, the connections you build with fellow users are independent of PeakD, which helps maintain a strong and autonomous network. The fear of deplatforming arises from systems that lack genuine ownership and decentralization, making this platform a refreshing choice. Here, power and authority are shared amongst the community, promoting a collaborative atmosphere like never before. This initiative signifies a significant departure from traditional approaches, establishing a unique foundation that stands apart from other content or social media platforms. With this innovative model, users can finally experience a sense of security and freedom in their online engagements, paving the way for a more empowered digital future. Ultimately, this shift encourages not just individual expression, but also collective growth and resilience.

    Smoothest Decentralized Experience

    Date: Apr 27 2022
    Summary

    Using PeakD gives a glimpse of what these decentralized interactions can be like. Smooth, easy, and beautiful. Finding authors, communities, and friends is pleasant.

    Positive

    PeakD is beautiful and works really well. It is integrated with Hive and has several authentication methods available. Finding an interacting with communities is easy, and the software is very smooth.

    Negative

    Would really prefer that the software was open source. All transactions can be completed through Keychain to verify safety, so it's not a huge con.

    Alternative user interface to Hive

    Date: Apr 27 2022
    Summary

    Just a different user interface to Hive so everything said about Hive is true about PeakD as well — with the only difference being that PeakD has a more feature rich user experience.

    PeakD is one of the three blockchains which has forked from Steem and shares many functionality with its peers.

    All PeakD blog posts are stored on a public ledger and can't be deleted. This is something to consider when using PeakD.

    PeakD postings are monetised based on the upvotes received. However can be hard for new users to get enough upvotes to pass the 2ç minimum payout threshold.

    The blockchain supports user defined token which can be used by communities to add additional incentives and communities for many interests have been created.

    Positive

    • Content is kept on the blockchain can't be deleted.
    • Own cryptocurrency with no transaction fees.
    • Community driven through elected witnesses.
    • Markdown support to create feature rich blog postings.
    • Monetisation though cryptocurrency.
    • Support for Groups/Community/Tribes support
    • API for automation.
    • Multiple user interfaces possible.
    • Open Source.

    Negative

    • Content can still be hidden in the user interface.
    • Whales dominate the blockchain trough the delegated proof of stake.
    • Opening accounts is complicated.
    • While free accounts are available a small one-off investment (≈10$) is suggested to get your account going.
