Giist vs eko

Giist is a groundbreaking new way to share online that gives readers full control of what they see (no opaque algorithm), and writers full control over their posts and the ensuing conversation; it is built from the ground up to minimize trolls, bots and online abuse; it provides a central place to share from all over the web (including other social media); and it encourages knowledge-building by allowing edits, other users to suggest edits, version tracking, a robust user-generated graph of topics, as well as keeping private notes with the same rich formatting and powerful search features. Giist has a freemium model, with free coins given to users daily, and more available for purchase if desired (web only), so it can avoid ads or sharing user information with marketers.

Social media used to be about connecting with friends. Now, it is about entertainment and selling ads. eko attempts to restore the feeling of community to social media. With no algorithm and no ads, eko helps you stay connected with the people who matter most. Express yourself through text, ascii art images, gifs, and polls. Whether you’re browsing posts from the global feed or just your inner circle, eko keeps social media simple.
