#19: Players of Modular versus Integrated Content Indexing
Most decentralized social projects follow a modular approach using existing blockchains while DeSo is following an integrated approach by creating a new layer 1 blockchain

TradSo allowed real user name and real faces while keeping the database closed. DeSo reverses by keeping the database open but using psuedonymous names instead.
