NeoDB is a Review System for Culture
NeoDB is a Review System for Culture
NeoDB is a review system with some remarkable tricks up its sleeve, and may provide a way forward for decentralized content discovery.
Today, we sat down and reviewed NeoDB, a Fediverse review system that lets you track books, movies, music, tv shows, games, podcasts, and more. There's some really incredible ideas beneath the surface.
Nifty
I'm confused about this part:
the platform offers an incredible piece of insight about data: “You don’t have to start over from scratch. You can totally just add your old data to your graph.” This idea is key to understanding what NeoDB actually is: a tool for piecing your online data together under one open, free, federated account.
So I get that it imports your reviews and posts from the big, closed platforms like IMDb, but could it also be used as a hub for different Fediverse accounts? Because the first part is cool, the second could be significant in terms of profile management?
So, to be clear: it's not a concept like Nomadic Identity. Rather, it's a demonstration of importing data archives from other social networks and platforms, and integrating that data into an existing Fediverse account.
In other words: it's not a singular managed identity for all your apps, it's a mechanism for marrying data from different systems to a Fediverse Actor. Paired with something like Nomadic Identity, it would be a game changer.
