John Mcafee did a huge meme war last year. it was really great and had a ton of attention.

Thanks for the information! Looks like he's even preparing for the next 2020 memewar   Grin

Checking back here after a month or so, I've got a colleague doing cartoons every week or so for the past month, and today seeing this post reminds me. They're not exactly memes (or actually, not at all). The idea was more closely inspired by those cartoons you'd get in newspapers, or even in regular publications, single frame illustrations, usually with a political undertone on current events. Would they find a home on your site as well (sort of a repost?).

It sure would be a great add up.
Basically as there's incentive on people liking/curating and creating the most popular content, we want to let the community decide on which post should become popular and get rewarded.
I believe these cartoons would find a home on it and who knows, this might become an artist platform instead of a "meme" platform.

Thank you for dropping by and we would love to have him beta test our platform.  Smiley

We aren't by the way against repost as it contributes to create something really popular. It's anyway all up to the community to decide not to vote on a post if it's too reposted.
Good thing that you are open for suggestions and recommendations.It would be better if you do stick with meme platform since you already started with that path.

You can contact them thru their telegram and they might be interested to collaborate . https://t.me/bconews

Not a bad add up at all but the decision will still depend on OP itself but if i were on his foot i would considerate such stuff to expand out. So its a thumbs up for me.

How many memes do you have so far? and how many people have helped/worked with you?

I liked this idea, some people who have high sense of humor and have out of the box thought will give memes to you without you having to pay.

I guess the lead-up he made memes or something that can make other people lough is the goal that he prioritizes.

We have quite a lot of memes on the platforms and already a few memelords
We're 4 people working on it and 3 others helping us! We're pretty open to everything too

You are right we think that this platform can curate the highest quality memes on the web and can become the funniest platform   Smiley

I just visited the site that you gave me and my opinion about your site is that the display on the home page is very striking in color, does not provide complete information and animations behind the scenes that are very disturbing. I think you can fix that.

Thanks andrearz for the feedback!
We could for sure add more information! We'll fix that, and please join us on discord if you feel like you'd use this app one day  Wink

I like the idea! Any app coming soon?
Just a quick feedback, maybe add something like a meme ranking inside the app

@Cryptarks

Okay, that's a pretty interesting way to try and overcome any problems with quality.
I'm curious on how it will work out over the long term.

Btw, your own Steem Power on Steemit isn't in direct correlation with how much you earn overall  
Okay, you may have more influence on how much you can vote for your own posts, but you still rely heaviest on other people's upvotes (Steem power).

Having 'friends in high places' is the single most important thing on Steemit, which also enables collusion (bad side-effect).

I see, thanks for the info, It's now full of whales anyway.
I see the logo crypto-games on your profile, did you create this platform?

@The Real Angelo Santos
Indeed design is important, If you have anything in mind please feel free to pm me.

What you have in mind is indeed something fun, thanks for sharing.
Getting feedback will surely help.

As a designer, I could suggest you invest on Branding and Identity Design.
A well-made logo reflecting the concept of your platform will definitely help Funnychain attract more users,
then in addition to that, a beautiful and creative website will boost your platform's popularity as well.

Now that's... something a bit new. Wasn't there a FB game back in the day, investing points in "hot pics"? I don't know, fun is fun but I still need to see for myself that this can work for tokenised models!

When users are able to earn money for just simply posting any sort of low-quality meme, that's basically what you get.

People don't put any effort in and they're happy with earning a couple of cents for posting and sort of crappy image they've found.

I'm not sure how you could overcome that :-/

Yep that's why we don't incentivize anyone, we incentivize posts that become famous and go to the hot page.
Basically every new content goes to the fresh page. Then we have the "meme miners", the people looking at memes. These people looking and selecting the funniest memes upvote and invest on memes.
As you invest, you are staking some tokens on the meme itself so you cannot randomly invest unless your very rich, and i'm not even sure this would be profitable.

So we've made an algorithm that selects the best memes depending on the investments, comments, likes, time posted etc.. (It's still not quite perfect but it's improving) for the hot page.

So while on steemit you get incentivized by how much SP and power you have, here on funnychain we made it so only people that contributed to hot posts get paid, so people curating the platform and posting great memes.

So we think this will overcome that, and quality memes/content only will be on the hot page!  Smiley

Ok. But why to limit yourselves with memes? Let it be pictures, generally.

It actually can be any kind of content in the future, but we wanted to start by focusing on memes because it's fun and also is the easiest way to convey meaning.  Smiley

But if it works it could actually be applied to pretty much any content yep (news, articles or other).
Thanks for your feedback kissnger!

I can be convinced that execution is the problem too, but I've seen plenty of iterations of Steemit that eventually all went down the same path. And you can see so many other forums and platforms doing something similar, but they simply can't escape the fact that the system, once gameable, slips away. The cost of democratisation?


Yeah that's completely true, I've seen that happen with dMania on the Steem blockchain.

Indeed, but we can take the example of Youtube aswell.
Early days their communication was more towards rewarding youtubeurs for their videos and incentivization helped quality content for them. From this emerged a whole community and it even created the Youtuber job too.
I believe it's more about execution than the idea itself. From the day steemit founder went to EOS, there haven't been much updates ever since.

But yes if the picture you posted gets famous and go to the hot page, you earn cryptos.
And you can also invest on memes, if the meme you invested in goes to the hot page, you get cryptos too depending on how much you've invested.  Smiley

People using memes are still alive?  Cheesy
I’m pretty sure half of the internet is still alive.

Only half? You overestimate the internets =p
