Patchwork VS Telescope

You're effectively describing Scuttlebutt in a nutshell. Small communities that are formed ad-hoc by peering with each other. "Follow" mean you'll help replicate their content for others who follow them + you. Scuttlebutt is already successful even though it's very small so far. Tags and other things can be used to explore content on the network, as long as you've found an entry-point.

I'm a bit split about spreading the word about Scuttlebutt, I don't want to ruin it since it's already so great. But felt it was very related to what you were writing, so here goes nothing :)

This app is itself is a Next.js app that relies on Vulcan.js, a full-stack JavaScript framework that I originally created for Meteor, and that Eric Burel later ported to Next.js. But we will likely phase out the Vulcan.js part eventually to make it a more standard codebase.

This app is itself based on a full-stack JavaScript framework I created, Vulcan.js. It works well enough for now, but in the future the app might need to be refactored in order to handle more surveys in parallel.
