”Clickbait has become so prominent” and here I am using it - to show what web2 started with and what it has become. About subscription economy, clickcbait ads and so on. That Stellar shill at the end is uncaled for though. But it’s interesting to see the narrative of the past and see what we are doing today when we say “oh, EOS is usable, it’s fine”…

Also have a look at the previous post about web2 vs web3.

Think about it: every video, every article you read - has some brand mention or focuses on either directly or indirectly sellign you some stuff. Spin back the last few articles you read and the last few videos you watched. Makes sense now, right? Now think of what scaling such a system would turn into.
