Old Social Media vs. Braai Layer 1 Social Heart
See why communities, institutions, and families are leaving algorithmic feeds for sovereign communal hearths:
| Dimension | Legacy Social Media (Big Tech) | Braai Layer 1 Social Heart |
|---|---|---|
| Attention Model | Addictive infinite scroll, dopamine slot machine algorithms | Small intimate circles, natural stopping points, Bedtime Guard |
| Privacy & Data | Centralized database harvesting, ad profile tracking & sales | Signal Double Ratchet E2EE, local SQLCipher, zero plaintext logs |
| Child & Teen Safety | Predatory stranger DMs, algorithmic rabbit holes, cyberbullying | Adult-to-minor shielding, ±1 year peer bracket, Guardian RSVP gate |
| Economic Utility | Extractive 30% app store / intermediary cuts, ad spam | 0.0% clearing fee in-thread splits, Stokvel vaults, local trade |
| Offline Resilience | 100% cloud dependent; completely dead during blackouts | 15km+ Sub-GHz LoRa radio mesh relays emergency SOS offline |
