firstly: big tech is not supporting the conception of a "web3". that goes completely against what they, and the government, want to turn the internet into.

in order to maintain control over its users and content, the internet needs to still be centralised but sustained through user-produced content ("web2"). web3 as a concept collapses in on itself due to its vagueness. who hosts websites if everything is decentralised? can we not use social media anymore, because its "centralised" around a singular platform? the only thing that really holds up in the web3 argument (and, unsurprisingly, is what the concept stemmed from) is the blockchain. which, as you can see here is already hemorrhaging money.

in order to actually come anywhere near a true "web3" experience, we would need to advance technology by like 20 years. you are putting fear into people with this stuff. don't worry, web3 is a complete joke of an idea and a fad that will die out in a few years. let the cryptobros waste all their money for being morons. web3 poses no threat to the current state of the internet as it is ultimately unsustainable in the long term.

tldr: if you didn't invest in crypto 10+ years ago, don't bother. stick to something actually tangible. web3 is hilarious

It's so fascinating how on the subject of whaling and adopters because more or less 6 years ago at some marketing summit this very concept was first debuted to the world. Though not many understand it. Because in the past you'd have capital investors or private funds to pay for these projects now it's just trust fund babies with too much money and blindly following the next fad.

There's a reason why Silicon Valley and major tech industries overhire. There's thousands of projects with the future of Web3. But so far it looks like they're gonna squeeze subscription services, microtransactions into every corner. And that's what I don't dig about this whole race to web3 supremacy. Greedy bastards are exploring new tech, this is why your data is worth so much money. (Cambridge Analytica Scandal)

it just sounds so... boring? the whole allure of the internet is its abundance of content... why would they want to force a scarcity into an environment that does well without it? obviously we know the answer ($$$) but i feel like tech bros can already make money if they have a good idea. seems like the mediocre ones are the ones pushing this, because they lack the creativity/intelligence to create something that would make money

It just seems like something the cryptobros will play with for like, 5 months and then leave in the dust for something else to circlejerk with. On the bright side, it's being acknowledged.

As each day passes, the predator class is trying to slowly push closer to the ultimate digital control grid. It is bad now but could be so much worse. Do not buy anything "smart" that does not need to be. Do not buy ring bells. do not buy most of this shit. Already we are being put in facial recognition databases without consent, because our laws are intentionnaly behind the technilogical curve, allowing companies to harvest all types of personal data that lies in a grey area or gets slipped into terms and conditions when it has nothing to do with the product. yea fuck web3 for sure.

This is a classic case of oldie suits mispredicting whats a good idea and whats a total sham thats gonna burst soon, the crypto bubble WILL burst soon and these doofuses will have lost a fat chunk of change.

The public opinion on nfts and blockchain tech is dire and met with ridicule online and uproarious laughter when the community fucks up

Oh the days of old. In the 2000s we were warned to not have your name and God forbid your face on the internet. Facebook was pretty chill in 2008 but then it and contemporaries turned into hellholes they are today. Also AI is turning more and more into Skynet nowadays.


Just had to get something out of my chest.

Yeah honestly it’s just a fad. I see no reason to be developing the next iteration of the web around some payment method barely anyone accepts. The web should be an open, decentralised, democratic and accessible place to have fun in :D.

I don't really get why a "new web" is even needed. At this point we've already perfected it, even though companies keep ruining their online shit with some of the worst decisions ever.

I want the guys who decided every element on every website should be rounded to eat 413 chicken nuggets.

My cousin spent ✨TOO MUCH✨ money on a ‘limited run’ NFT.. of like ✨20,000✨ identical poor-quality 3D car models. It has been ‘sitting in his garage’ for like two years, as he hasn’t been able to transfer it over (to what? I don’t wanna be dragged into their crypto shit) bc ✨TECHNICAL ISSUES✨. The same cousin was dead serious that same Christmas when he said that he was going to forego all moral obligations and live in the Metaverse (in his parent’s spare room). That side of my family is very much ✨(missing) ‘THE BIG PICTURE’✨ 🤦‍♀️

It kinda sucks being the heir to my father's collection of this crap. He spent a lot of money of this NFT shit and is waiting years to be paid back in all this stuff.

Now, I don't really understand it (nor do I care) but He keeps pushing his beliefs onto me. When I explain to him that I'm not interested in it, I get the beautiful guilt trip display platter of "Oh, you don't like making money? You can just play these games and you'll make money!".

The NFT cryptochodes are now making their way into the gaming field and me, an aspiring game designer, am now being pressured into diving into it's hellhole of boomer, republican, stock snorters of the internet.

I do NOT want to be a part of it.

It's honestly wild that things like this even exist.. like.. how far could this go? Imagine former freeware just ends up as an NFT, hell, in theory a prime suspect for such cases could be lost media, I think? Given that might just be gatekeeping  but... you get what I mean? :o
