Interesting, using TXT fields in DNS records seems like a good way to decentralise data.
I just wonder about the promoting "immutability", is that something people want? I would think most individuals don't want every thing they say permanently added to a database/blockchain, right?
Immutability makes social media worse. Immutability may make me consider my words before I write them, but it also prevents me from saying things I’m not sure about, from learning as I go, and from experimentation.
Perhaps more importantly, it holds my opinions hostage to time and to the progress of society.
twetch solves this by encrypting each post on the blockchain and allowing users to revoke access (functionally deleting the post for all users)

This is definitely a little bit of a different medium to twitter and likely the '1 post per block' limitation is great in this case. Think before you Zooko, as it's permanent and forever.
