Pods are the logical inversion of the centralized model of the internet, but the problem remains:
Of all the pods on the internet, which are the good ones?
I’ve been working on a unique graphical system of voting that uses color based metrics for feedback on content. Using the spectrum as a metric system of feelings, (redshift bad, blueshift good), other pods could be “color coded” according to how much you like the content.
People have different preferences, so the colors would vary according to the user. Each pod would be colored differently according to user preference. The distribution of colors would represent the collective reputation of the pod.
Over time the most toxic would be the most redshifted, and the best would be most blueshifted depending on personal preference.
This could scale to any size network, I’d like to meet someone interested in augmenting the solid protocol.
