2024 will be the year of Nairaland's resurgence. I will face Nairaland squarely like I used to before the discouraging Data Loss Incident of 2014. I will hire more hands to help us to improve Nairaland.
The problems of Nairaland that we should have solved years ago will be solved.
* We will defeat tribalists, trolls, & spammers.
* We will complete our advertising platform.
* We will improve the UI and UX.
* Home page topics will be educative & fresh.
However, I must warn you that things will get worse before they get better. Please stand with us and fight for u as Nairaland faces the tough challenges of 2024, which have already started.

Nairaland is a 2 billion naira worth at the minimum of venture if seun decide to take it seriously
Seun still runs this as a side of side project from his "cubicle" in sango-ota .
Knowing Seun to be an introvert who doesn't like the spot light or want to be popular just as myself, if I were him
I will
Run Nairaland as a business' by
1. Opening a physical office space in Lagos, Abuja, Sango-ota as HQ
2. Employ a CEO to run it while I continue to serve as founder and CTO
3. Employ a full team of enginneers, UX front end designers, marketers
Manage
1. Front page should be very current with update as it happens, ( I see a news/even on instablog and see it days after on the frontpage), alot of people only visit the front page, so it must be regularly updated and of high quality
2. limit posting to some section for new accounts, like have some way you rank accounts, new account should have a 3 month sandbox restriction.
3. make it impossible to register multiple account from thesame device,
4. Use text verification and real email ( no temp mails) for registration
5. Moderation : Each section should have atleast 2 mod and very active section 3 with 1 supermod.
6. Tribalism and hate speech should attract ban, device ban, email ban if possible an IP ban after two warnings
Buid
Implement new feature,
One of the allure of Nairaland is it simplistic UI and fast loading time
That doesn't need to change but it can be better,
1. Add Night mode, this will switch the background to black which is easy on the eyes at night, users can toggle on off
2. Add a bit of self moderation by adding a dislike button (when a comment has so many disikes, a moderator manually access if it should be hidden, users can still view the comment if clicked
3. An email system should be designed, communication stays on nairaland instead of third part email (all nairaland user get a user@nairaland.com email after 6 months of active usage provided the haven't been banned more than thrice,.
4. Build a robust ad management system, from creation, funding , moderation,
5.make it easy to share, the share button can be linked to whatsapp, fb, tiktok, IG, so when someone click on share they can also share outside the platform
a short url like naira.land will also make sharing easy
6. native ios/app with great push feature
mabe more later if I think of more
You didn't charge him for all these? 12 Likes 1 Share |

Even till this very day, the data that was lost, have not been retrieved. So, Mr Seun, why should we take you serious?
If you had faced Nairaland squarely and not go to X and start arguing with people who don't put money in your pocket, Nairaland would not have been down for 2 days.
It's high time you stop making empty promises. It's not nice at all. You sound like a politician. What assurance do we, who put content on this site (not the brain draining content) have that such a thing won't happen again? Remember, we trusted you with our content once upon a time, you disappointed us. So I ask again, what assurance do we have.
Have a nice day, and Happy New Year. As if you are paying to use Nairaland. See your hubris. 2 Likes |

Finally. Long overdue. My two cents: there's a reason Nairaland has kept growing after all these years and with next to zero upgrades. It goes to show that the concept and delivery is watertight. So, don't change it except to improve the user experience. I'll recommend eradicating tribalism as the priority. 10 Likes 1 Share |

It is indeed something we have all been hoping for. I kindly urge the NairaLand moderators to be more vigilant and impartial, particularly when it comes to matters of politics and religion. It's time to move away from biased moderation. I am eager to work along with you, @seun, to enhance the NairaLand community. If an opportunity arises, I would be delighted to apply for a moderator position. 1 Like |
