72. The Fight to Make Online Spaces Civil Again - Yevgeny Simkin

Why Owning Your Online Identity Matters More Than Ever

Is it possible to fix social media? In this episode, I’m joined by Yevgeny Simkin, Co-Founder of Sez.us, a new social media platform built to encourage civility and healthier online spaces.

We talk about why we need real alternatives to Facebook and Twitter, who controls online conversations today, and how owning your online identity could change the way communities connect. Yevgeny explains why escaping social media giants might be the first step toward better ways to connect online and how community-driven platforms can reshape our digital future.

If you’ve ever wondered whether social media could be less toxic and more human, this conversation offers both hope and a roadmap.

Listen now to explore how Sez.us is rethinking what social media can be.
