I agree with most of the other criticisms except the identity stuff, because I'm disappointed by our industry. We were going to open up the world and make it a better place but it seems to have gone off the rails and become much more like the finance industry or other grim husks. The pretense remains but the reality is pretty cancerous. The platforms that are supposed to bring us together gave us depression, massive political division and put us under constant surveillance. The innovative ideas gave way to chasing fads for that sweet vc cash. The decentralised experimental currency is now penny stocks on steroids (although you could argue that was inevitable). I guess you could say the utopian vision died a sad death and not everyone wanted to see it go.
