Agreed, for those who are technically inclined. One could argue its why facebook and twitter exist. Was too difficult or expensive to make your own / host your data.
I am not advocating for web3. I am saying its some middle ground at a new shot to not give all your data to someone who says this will host your data for 'free' vs an easy (to be seen) way for my stuff to be hosted with some type of payment from me in exchange for someone not abusing it. I know that is a tall orders, but from what I have seen that is the pitch for web3.
- shkkmo 4y agoIt has only gotten easier to host your own content or find someone to pay to host your content. Web3 does nothing new here and doesn't actually help. What web3 does is take people's desires for those types of solutions, and turn them into a way to scam people out of money. If you want to make it even easier to control how your content is hosted, join one of the many open source projects that are building free tools that make things easier. Edit: While I not the biggest fan of WordPress on a technical level, that piece of open source software has done far more to democratize the ability to host your content on a platform you control than the entire Web3 ecosystem put together.
