Why XPUB?

Before XPUB, I worked as a brand and visual designer for premium grocery delivery platform. It was one of the domains that I wanted to work for because I loved browsing through the feed of delicious foods. However, working in the company made me realize that behind the endless feed there are group of people constantly producing content. I was making a lot of things public but at the same time nothing, as they are repetitive and have less time for reflection.

I liked the idea of working on a domain making something interactive through the internet. Below are the things that I wanted to gain from XPUB:
