Developing and Having your own social media is not that easy by using Traditional Web 2.0.
Web 3.0: Web 3.0 is a web development term that refers to a new web platform in development. Web 3.0 is designed to improve the user experience and to make it easier for developers to create web applications.
One of the key features of web 3.0 is its ability to create decentralized applications (DApps). DApps are applications that run on a network rather than a single server. This makes them more secure and efficient because they are not subject to the problems that can occur when applications run on a single server.
The Entire Web 3.0 is only on Blockchain Technology.
