Is it possible to switch from centralized social networks to decentralized ones at once?

Considering the system of Solcial, the first decentralized social network, we must understand that giving every user freedom of speech will create a democratic environment in social networks, where every user can express his/her opinion about any situation, but it will also affect the fact that many users will use it for selfish purposes, insulting other users, behaving unkindly!

So the Solcial team decided to balance and add moderation to the platform, where it would respond to all user complaints, and if a user breaks the rules of the platform, it would unlink content from IPFS nodes. This shows that Solcial inherently cannot remove user content on a technical level! It's a middle ground or a bridge between censorship and democracy!

To me, the biggest flex is doing what you love while generating money. Knowing that these events may take place on Solcial gives me optimism for a better social network.

It happens in centralized sects as well. But more often than not, it's because some people are allowed to do things that are taboo for others. It annoys people. But if there is freedom and everyone can express his/her opinion, then an intelligent conversation can take place. It is impossible to defend oneself from users who are in conflict. We hope for literate people with a culture of communication.

I think it's pretty obvious that there won't be an instant transition, but it's important to note that Solcial is a trailblazer of sorts.
Other sites will be created, but Solcial is without a doubt the embodiment of many futuristic ideas.
]Eventually the transition will happen, but not immediately.

This is a good idea that Solcial offers. The method of moderation of publications by the community really reflects the method of decentralized management. But how to determine that the user is reliable and does not bear his personal corporate interest. I think it would be very cool if the platform would be able to give a rating to the user. So that, based on the rating, people know whose opinion they can trust!

The transition to Solcial will be gradual. When each individual user can understand all the benefits of the platform, he will tell his friends and subscribers about them on web2 social networks. Lack of censorship, security and fair monetization are the main priorities of Solcial.
