This is awful. If drm-ed pay to access sites weren't bad enough. Now we have a way to late stage capital our way into setting literal invite links.

- samb1729 5y agoCare to elaborate? Are you also against the notion of paying to enter a concert or sporting event? If no, could you expand on what you believe the difference between these two things to be?
- nemothekid 5y agoad-surveillance supported free websites is ok, but paid membership access is late stage capitalism?
- casi18 5y agoPaywalls are great at stopping spammers. And membership for groups is hardly an internet only thing. Haven't tried Hyper, but the nft gated discords I use are much nicer places to hang out and chat and make things together. In the past year ive gone from using discord maybe once a month to it being my main internet social-space. Even better is that most of the memberships feed back into the group accounts. I'm curious why you have such a strong reaction against this though, I much prefer it to adverts.
