Hey I love @trimet but it is such a convenience to be back on my bike and in control of my own transportation route and schedule!

Yeah. I think the right model may be to use Postgres or traditional DBs for *most* of the system, and a blockchain for the parts people will fight over.
So things like upvotes, likes, follower counts — and of course money.
We haven’t seen systems consciously built this way yet.
What I'm saying is I actually don't think a global number of likes on a post is even a good idea. What's more interesting is how many ppl within my own network have liked a post.
Otherwise we're just mirroring Twitter along with all the negative behaviors that come with it. -

Great q.
I’d argue that many social apps make use of global consensus on at least *some* values. Could be upvotes vs user counts.
If you can get global consensus on one byte, you can run it again to get global consensus on N bytes (possibly with some upper limit on N).
And I'd argue that global consensus is unrealistic and unnecessary, and pursuing it comes at the cost of too many other useful properties.
Local consensus is more useful and easier to achieve, and still results in perfectly functional systems.
