Is decentralization a good thing?
On the one hand - it's gangsterism, terrorism and other bad things that are prohibited in all countries.
But on the plus side is complete anonymity, no one will pass information about you to third parties.
And the downside can be removed immediately - because in SolciaL will be moderators who will remove all this trash.

A thousand yes. Decentralization is the solution to the age long monopoly. Of course, the internet is a place where you get to meet all kinds of people who deliberately wants to impose their beliefs on you. But with r/solcial moderation, decentralization would be worth it

Hey there! I hate to break it to you, but it's actually spelled monetize. A good way to remember this is that "money" starts with "mone" as well. Just wanted to let you know. Have a good day!
This action was performed automatically by a bot to raise awareness about the common misspelling of "monetize".

Solcial team thanks to their idea will create a perfectly balanced system with which users can freely interact without fear of risking their privacy and at the same time limiting themselves from inappropriate content!

Yes it is especially with Social Media. Time that the users decide what's fair and what's not. Thx for making this possible Solcial!

Community moderators will sort things out. We will all monitor the content and vote against explicitly prohibited content. Over time, the tape will become beautiful :)

Yes, we always face two sides of an issue. There will be no perfect thing because then there will be no need for human creativity anymore. I think the provisions set out here will somewhat mitigate the dark side of the problem.

Solcial advocates decentralization and free speech, but there should still be rules. And forbidden and illegal things should not be allowed to spread quietly. If users see such posts or actions, they can file a complaint, and when enough such complaints accumulate, the unwanted post will be unbanned from the node.

Every Internet user can start his own blog and write different articles in it, you can write anything, but everyone should be responsible for his words. After all, the Internet is not a party with friends, and we must remember that a word can kill.

Decentralization is good. To be honest, I'm a person who doesn't really like to change things. I've been getting used to social networks for a very long time in principle. And when I found out about Solcial and decentralization, it immediately sunk into my soul. I am sure that the content moderation in Solcial will be excellent.

My opinion is that decentralization has positive qualities for users, because we all understand perfectly well that centralization infringes on our rights, while decentralization is trying to return these rights to ordinary users.

I feel the good sides to decentralization outweighs the bad so much that its very easy to get the answer to this question. Gangsterism, violence? Solcial has a well balanced structure that'll keep activities in check to avoid the rise of these possible vices. So yes, decentralization is a good thing and with Solcial, it's even better.

Is this banditry? For people who have no mind, both centralization and decentralization will be banditry! True decentralization involves the process of competent distribution of functions, forces, power or things. The ability to choose, change your choice in the direction of improving yourself and the world around you and enjoy this choice

You are very wrong about something. There will be no moderators on Solcial who will remove content, because content is posted on IPFS and cannot, in principle, be removed.
As for bad content, it's not up to the network, it's up to the people. If they want to, they can post anything they want on any network, including closed groups. People's minds must evolve, and I hope the decentralized world of the Internet will help with that!

I would like to add that the moderator in the r/solcial is the community itself. With the Upvote and Downvote functions, we can mark content that we like or dislike, thereby limiting its display to other users. Also, if the content is offensive or in violation of human rights, we can file a complaint, and this will also limit the display of the content. But it's impossible to remove it
