Trendoo

such a hard market for NFT related products, wish you much success!! congrats on the launch!

I couldn't be more thrilled to share Trendoo with the Product Hunt community.

The motivation behind Trendoo

The web has come quite far since web 1.0 in 1989 until its gradual replacement with the emergence of web 2.0 in 2005. The problem with web 2.0, however, is that businesses hold our data and can use it to be commercialised and used to manipulate public opinion.

Data leaks, such as the one experienced by 533 million Facebook users across 106 countries, have exposed vast amounts of personal information. The sharing of troves of full names, phone numbers, email addresses, and profile details leaves victims vulnerable to criminal attacks.

And most of us now realize that platforms themselves harvest and sell user data for it to be raked over and exploited by advertisers. For many, this feels like a breach of trust, as well as an unacceptable infringement of privacy.

There is then the control of content – or lack of it. For instance, creators opening an account with Instagram must allow it to “use, distribute, modify, run, copy, publicly perform or display, translate and create derivative works” of their content. Feeds curated by platform algorithms are increasing bias and polarization.

The birth of Trendoo

Blockchain-based technologies have now advanced to the point of providing viable solutions for these web2 pain points. Decentralized social media offers the chance to rethink the relationship between social networks and their users, from the ground up rather than the top down.

Decentralized architecture means there does not have to be a single platform owner. Web3 can also enable users to guide the platforms they use and own their social communities.

Social media needs this massive change so Trendoo - The first Web3 photo and video sharing social platform revolutionising influencer and fan connections was born.

How does Trendoo work?

• - content creators that post on our platform own their content and have full control over it
• - each piece of content they post is minted as NFT which ensures the ownership & the authenticity of their work
• - content creators get sponsored by fans or brands directly in cryptocurrency
• - there are no middlemen
• - there is no central authority

Web3 is a revolution happening as we speak and is the future of the Internet. We want to be part of it and we hope that you will too!

I hope some of you will love this immediately and others will be sceptical initially. I will be here all day to answer questions and engage. Please feel free to ask away!

Nice one!! Congratulations on the launch!!

This looks like the instagram of web3. Congratulations on the launch!

All the very best!

Web3 adoption can be quite challenging for users coming from Web 2.0. We've decided to add a set of videos to help our early adopters get started with Trendoo. Please check it out here: https://www.trendoo.io/tutorial. I hope it helps!
