I’m a huge skeptic of web3 as it tends to be defined, but I really appreciate this viewpoint. Web3 has tons of flaws but many of the motivations and ideas are interesting, powerful, and could be molded into something really amazing for the world. And The HN community has a chance to be a part of that process.
It helps that web3 is poorly defined, too.
