You so funny. I laughed at your cleverness. So hip. On the ball. Not.
Honestly, you and your ilk complain relentlessly about the evils of big media tech but never do anything about it.
And when those more imaginative than you suggest a possible better future you try to pull them down to your base level.
Web3 is a little misleading as a label as it suggests just web2.0 updated
It isn't just that, or even just crypto.
It isn't even really web. It serves many purposes and fits the needs of the many and the few.
One of the aims is to destroy this ad based monster that is called the internet. To fight back against the bottom feeding w*****rs from marketing is a good enough starting point for many.
The skill is to see through the marketing b******s to the true value the technology is offering and try to get rid of those waste of space marketing ars*holes who are only doing that job cause nobody with a soul would.
So far, there have been a select few excellent post on this subject which have far outshined the naysayers. Cheers, reg for the story. At least thee neanderthals know a little now.
Downvotes. Bring it. I luvs it.
Oh, loving those downvotes. Lol. Honestly made me laugh so much. Reminded me of how a few of us back in 1999 saw the potential of internet on your phones and set about creating what you use today.
If you lot had upvoted me tons I would be seriously worried.
We have a huge storeroom out back for the dinosaurs, just down the corridor there. Please close the door on your way out.
'TL:DR' blimey, you can talk, literally.
Not everything is hype. Good things get overhyped but they are still good.
Web3 is more than just crypto so you need to expand your Google searching a bit.
Good lord, man, we'd still be in the trees if it were for ones like you.
No one knows for sure. We are all making it up as we go along, defining the models to follow. Give it a go one day before you sit ringside booing the boxers claiming to be able to do better.
Web3 will come whether you like it or not.
No, the fashion for labellising version numbers past years back.
web3. Just that.
It included many parts, like above where u have social networks not exploiting users, layers of identity.
But the overall idea is to stop being exploited to near slavery level by the big media tech companies into doing their work for them and then they getting paid for it.
It is an evolutionary step in the internet.
Excellent post.
Web3, for so it is named, is about shifting from the current web 2 model where internet users are effectively working for the tech giants producing content for the likes of Google, Facebook, etc.
It is those companies that benefit by far the most from the users work, whilst the users, if they are lucky, get a tiny percentage in reward.
Web3 is a catch-all for the move to greater returns for creators. No longer will creators be given the kind of commission rates the likes of Google offer: compare the profits from a self-hosted Adsense click-thru to the cost Google charges the advertiser - a huge and i mean HUGE difference.
But not only that, because Google have got away with paying people less than 1pc of profit then all the others have joined in paying commission rates that would of been laughed out of the room in pre-internet days.
Web3 isn't b**sh*t. Some of the tech is, or rather immature, but it offers a possible future where we aren't all Google ad IDs.
Whether we get there is up to us, I guess.
