Why PiePost

PiePost is a decentralized social media environment, where profiles and feeds are modular and free. What binds PiePosts accounts together is the structure of the posts.json data attached to each website. That's it! There are no other requirements to be part of the system. Users are free to creatively build upon their PiePost websites, integrate them into there own environments, and even build there own feeds to host there personal communities. Users host there data privately meaning there are no accounts, no adds, no servers, and no one to tell you what to do.

PiePost is an environment based upon modular expansion, organic growth, and urban design principles. It is social media that is adaptable and transformable. It can support both small and large communities, and easily integrate into existing infrastructures. An environment must have some centralized axioms to build structures and networks from but ideally they are few and simple. For PiePost this axiom is the structure (posts.json) and naming conventions behind it.

Like train infrastructure there must be a defined and agreed upon rail and rail gauge (distance between rails), but after that there can be many types and brands of locomotives and train cars that serve a variety of purposes. Stations are customizable and lead to different destinations. PiePost seeks to emulate this type of structure where there is some amount of standardization but after that it can branch freely and be built organically to fit the needs of the community.
