Smallest.social went from idea, through simple mockups, to a functional, scalable service in 3 days. It is not trivial to build this and quite interesting as a dev challenge. I'm thinking about the next steps!

If we consider the web itself a social network, it suddenly seems strangely underdeveloped.
I'm developing an experimental infrastructure for privacy-friendly, lightweight social interactions on the web. Launching soon.
