Hi, I am mesmoiron, indiehacker and steward of makea<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building an ethics first social media platform<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Join me with Tabu<\/strong>, a social media platform where Integrity is worth more than Profits.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHY?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Baobab is not the grandest tree in the desert, nor does it try to be. The Baobab is not about power, but instead the tree is about care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the harsh desert environment, one Baobab tree can moisten the soil, recycle nutrients, slow soil erosion, and yield fruit such that any plants and animals surrounding it flourish! Under its branches, life finds its shelter and families find their protection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My goal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My goal is to create a social media platform which creates a safe and healthy space to connect with your friends while supporting real life interactions, just as the Baobab tree creates a safe space below its branches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It CROWNs<\/strong> its space. With Care<\/strong>, Repurpose<\/strong> and Ownership<\/strong> such that its surrounding flourishes. Life finds shelter, families protect it by ancient wisdom!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to put that nature into social media?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I plan to build Tabu<\/strong>, my social media platform, with a structure that promotes peace rather than conflict. Ethical behavior is strongly encouraged among both businesses and individuals! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I want to allow Tabu<\/strong>‘s users to build trust with one another through genuine relationships, gradually improving their friendship over time. People can plant their roots under the branches of Tabu<\/strong>, instead of withering due to the harsh environment. Most social media platforms use unethical behavior to make money, leaving people feeling defeated and depressed. It doesn’t have to be that way! Let\u2019s solve this issue together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crowdfunding in The Netherlands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I have started inviting schools in the Netherlands, the place I know best. Until now, I kept it much a secret. Only a few kids know what I am doing. Since fundraising takes way more time than I had anticipated, and I have a great supportive team, that got me this far; I have decided to also start with crowdfunding. Each round will last 34 days; only through ING. After that, I will update for the next round. You can help build that great place. Donate something, and send me your most annoying social media problem, you want to get rid of. Send it in the form below.

Opinionated<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A stark contrast from other social media<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tabu<\/strong> won’t be perfect at first. We’ll have to grow it from the ground up, just like a Baobab tree. But I believe that together we can build this platform to be a thriving, peaceful ecosystem for everyone to enjoy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike other social media, we will be focused on peaceful collaboration, rather than power and dominance. That’s where the magic, humor, and fun of this platform will come from! Join me with this project, and it could be your golden ticket. Together, we can grow this sapling into a beautiful Baobab tree!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Remember<\/strong>:” Growing from nothing, imperfect, developing Integrity<\/strong> by doing<\/strong>. You know the features; we will implement them by growing contributions, but in a different way. That’s where the magic happens, the humor comes, your collaborations give you The Golden Ticket<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
