contnet will stop being free due to ai consumption

  Interesting! I wonder if this will be the way we open the door to microtransactions on the web!

    Nostr is already doing that. Checkout stacker.news. It’s like Reddit but it requires micro payments to post. Commission is split with site owner and content creators.

      How do you prevent people just paying to push their own agenda and the site being full of biased commercial stuff? Edit; oh you don’t, this site is full of bitcoin shit.

        any nostr site is going to be heavily geared towards bitcoiners since the payment system uses lightning network.

  There is already [effectively] no "free" true content And it is not "due to ai consumption" - it is due to fewer people being willing to self-sponsor their efforts, and instead relying on aggregation platforms (all of which are for-pay or ad-supported (or both)) to 'get the message out'
