I don't get the extreme positions on that. There will be some sort of web3 and will be really relevant for some bigger groups of people. Saying that it should die and (the other extreme) saying "it's the solution for everything" is just ignorant.
- ivarv 4y agoThe "it should die" camp take their view literally. At issue for many of us is the rampant consumption of resources to keep web3/cryptomining going. The ends() do not justify the means. () for any variation of "ends" people have come up with so far.
- JshWright 4y ago"The ends don't justify the means" is a very generous framing, since the "ends" are just scams in the first place.
- tacker2000 4y agoThis is the most sensible answer. There is probably no black and white outcome here, the web3 stuff will stick around for those who want it and who want to keep it alive. If you don’t understand or need it, just ignore it. This is just the usual “twitter bait” thats going on now. People are promoting this and then other people feel “threatened” and feel the need to take a position. Same with the whole Metaverse discussion going on now. Next year it will be something else, ad nauseam.
- polemic 4y agoA lot of us don't feel it appropriate to "just ignore" technologies with massively negative externalities. We are effected whether we like it or not.
