It's pretty hard to run one for the non-trivial use cases if you're trying to actually do what you might classically consider to be moderation. I think that part's been a little bit tough, and that is one of the things that we've been sort of sitting back to evaluate before we kind of push on recommending them more, is to see how this is affecting communities.

And I don't think I would give that one 10 out of 10 marks. we're hearing in some cases it's gone pretty well, but in some cases we're hearing that it's a pretty stressful position. There's a lot of responsibility that comes along with it. And, uh, and I don't know if they're empowered in all the ways they need to be to handle that responsibility or the expectations that come along with it.

So, yeah, I don't want to, I don't want to, uh, walk in here and, and ignore that. You know what I'm saying? Like, I do want to cop to that. It's, it's not quite 100%, I think at the place that I'm, I would love for it to be, but I, And I'm glad that we're giving it a shot, you know what I mean? And I'm glad that we're learning off of it.

And I think you'll probably see more updates to it based on some of the challenges that we've had over the coming year.

Yeah, I would actually like for it to be more of it. There's still a couple of things that we've still got closed, like our main algorithm is still closed. We'd love to get that open at some point. We have some of our backend that's, you know, you can get the backend running, but it's not to the 100% ready-to-go place.

And so I'd love to get all that totally open and in a good package so that people can run it. But... a lot of it is open source. It was really fun to be able to share, you know, when we got to the, we got, we managed to hit, you know, number one in the app store, really proud moment. And that's awesome. I was able to share the source code and say, here it is. Here's the source code.

If you want to do it, you know, have one yourself. So that I'm really proud of that. You know what I mean? Like that we were able to take an open source application to this place. And I really liked that. We have stayed with that throughout.

I'm going to Steve Jobs it and say, yes, it's never happened before.

Yeah, I may only restrict this to the things that I'm proud of, to be honest. But one, I'll say the one that comes to mind that actually worked so much better than I ever expected was the domain names for usernames. I'm glad to bring that up. Yeah, we put that in there, honestly, for a very pragmatic reason. We just needed a namespace that was decentralized, right?

And which would work for the open network and which had the affordances that we needed. And so I was like, well, okay, domains, right? What else are you going to use?
