"Web 3" is about making the internet better. It has three main ideas:
Identity: This means keeping your personal information safe online. It's like having control over who sees your information.
Decentralization: Right now, big companies control a lot of the internet. Web 3 wants to change that by spreading out control so everyone has a say. This could make the internet fairer and more open.
Interoperability: Sometimes, different parts of the internet don't work well together. Web 3 wants to fix that by making it easier for everything to connect and work smoothly.
These ideas are being put into action through projects like Affinidi's Trust Network and Mastodon. They're trying to make the internet safer, fairer, and easier to use for everyone.
