Freeing the Future of Social Media With Myriad

Myriad: the next generation social media for futurists

Social media has been the driving force behind our day-to-day interaction for decades and is arguably the most influential invention of the 21st century. Social media was originally conceived to connect people, fast-forward two decades later and our modern society has now been molded by it. Most urban populations cannot communicate without it.

Like it or not social media has become the backbone of our society. But contemporary social media platforms cannot accommodate this massive change themselves, there needs to be an effort by the people to build inclusive and sovereign communities online. We here at Myriad understand the gravity of the situation and intends to fill in the gap by not making an extra layer on top of contemporary social platforms.

Myriad Social is building the future of social media, among our features, four noteworthy ones distinguish us from the crowd:

  1. Fully decentralized, host and run your own Myriad Social node.

  2. Anonymous cross-platform monitoring on centralized social media such as Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit.

  3. Customizable user-defined algorithms, you can choose how personalized you want your algorithms to be.

  4. Cross-platform interaction and monetization through user tipping and on-platform decentralized advertising.

Myriad Social not only intends to serve as a sovereign alternative to contemporary but our platform is literally built on top of contemporary platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit. You would not need to “migrate” to our platform because we aggregate content from other sites for you to enjoy.

We here at Myriad want you to own your content and make a living out of it because it’s in our belief that everyone has a right to determine their future. Hence, Myriad has also made it easy for you to monetize your content, you rely on tips like business models on Patreon, or better yet you can run your own advertising system to make a living out of your own carefully crafted experience.

We also want Myriad to be a testing ground for new concepts and ideas, thus, we are making Myriad as modular as possible to allow for extensibility options by developers in the future. The freedom we give to make extensions in our platform coincides with our goal of enabling more people to create inclusive communities by giving tools on how they can shape their communities online.

The future of the world relies on a robust communication system, and the role of centralized infrastructure might not be up to the task. Myriad wants to decentralize social media to not only give people sovereignty over their own data but to also increase the longevity of our current internet space. 

For Myriad this is only the beginning. The dream of an internet where we can express ourselves freely is still on the horizon. Even though the goal of Myriad still sounds philosophical, the opportunity is still at hand to secure the way we communicate and reshape how we view relationships, users, and communities.

Join us on this journey of experiment and discovery as we demonstrate the creation of a social internet beyond the reach of undue influence. The world is ready for us!
