Over the past year or so I’ve been playing with the idea of a decentralised social platform based on your location. By putting physical location at the centre of the experience, such a platform could be used to bring communities together and provide a source of local information when travelling. Please let me know what you guys think.

Is that a matrix address? I don't know what this is, I'll look into it. Thanks for the feedback. It isn't quite how I envision it but it sounds like a lot of people are in favour of local communities, and it appears we don't have a solution on the fediverse for that yet.
