Platforms like YouTube, Facebook,tumblr, medium and others have flattened, homogenized, or outright censored the fun and diverse content that used to be there.

I wonder if we will see a rebirth of self-platforming and curation through bootstrapped means.

That is one area I am looking at seriously these days.

Regardless of the platform, discovery is still the biggest challenge. How to find and be found, especially when you refrain from using any of the more standard choices.

I’d like to see the emergence / resurgence of discovery tools/services.

What if people could run their own search engines?

I'd say Youtube is still full of interesting niches, but you won't find it on trending.

This is an opportunity.
