An excellent and viable alternative to Facebook, Sharfly has launched its own social media platform with almost the same features but without the censorship.Officially launched on January 1st 2020, Sharfly is a new social media platform with almost the same features as Facebook but without the data mining, advertisements or account bans. The website provides users control of their accounts and allows them to choose from a public feed or friends only feed.But the similarity ends there. By using a reputation system with likes and dislikes for the public feed, users are not subjected to dubious content. If a post gets -9 meaning 9 dislikes and no likes, it will be automatically removed. This is something that a lot of Facebook users have been clamoring about for years.“With absolutely no advertising we have grown quickly to over 1000 daily members in a short amount of time,” said Cale Allen, owner and founder of Sharfly.“Our main goal is to provide a social media site without data mining, advertisements or censorship. We strongly believe in freedom of speech, security and privacy,” he added. Updated on 20th of January 2020, Sharfly’s privacy policy specifically states that - We are uncompromising about trust, respect and integrity. You own your personal information & content.Just like Facebook, Sharfly also has its own version of groups, pages and marketplace but they added a blogging platform for every user who wants to start their own blogs. And with the growing popularity of paid content, Sharfly integrated its own affiliate system.By referring someone to the website and convinced them to upgrade to a premium account, you will be receiving 10% of the monthly fees for life.Sharfly is also planning to add a store system similar to Ebay’s stores and it is already in the drawing table. But unlike these popular online stores, there will be no fees and all sales will go directly to the user’s PayPal Account. Currently, Sharfly’s team is developing a system for schedule posting for groups, pages, and profiles.If only all FB users will have the tenacity to cut their ties with Facebook, maybe they would realize how Facebook is treating its users with virtual contempt and privacy breach with its content censorship and unwanted advertising. via /r/Entrepreneur http://bit.ly/2VuWzpm
