Thanks for summing up these wonderful projects.
When I came to the blockchain I took it as the place to publish all the thoughts and researches I couldn't spread anywhere else. It's not alone the fact that it can't be censored, most importantly I simply felt safe in a group of people who are all about decentralizing power. And I love the way the blockchain teaches engagement. Wthout engagement no reader, no upvote, no nothing.
The only problem I am having with it is: Fake engagement. You can tell that many people don't read the articles but rather read the first lines and then scroll down to leave a comment suggesting they would have read it. I sense this a lot. And I don't like it. However, now I am totally offtopic! :D
Thanks for providing these links. I believe we need more committed members. There are some real pearls, as you stated, but many empty shells as well … ;)
Keep up the good work!
