#### Blockchain
All these apps are all distributed, because they use a blockchain. But it seems they are all in competition, rather than federating with each other by using a standard set of protocols like ActivityPub to federate with each other. It's hard to see how any of them will gain the network effect to compete with the legacy datafarms. Although some, like Resonate, are (user-owned?) cooperatives, it seems like at least some of the others are just datafarm larvae, aiming to enslave enough users to get Vulture Capitalist funding, and exit by acquisition or IPO - Strypey
