This is your brain on capitalism

Ah true, another problem we can make worse by trying to finally find something where crypto could be an actual solution.

No thanks on the crypto DAO stuff here. Glad it makes someone happy but sounds like a person problem and not a technological one.

What, doesn't that defeat the whole purpose of this FOSS platform? This should be and needs to be a place where people can come together to talk, chat, make friends.

This should not be a place paywalled by crypto, that will probably lead Lemmy down the path of X.

There are invite-based systems since the dawn of the internet, notably torrent trackers and closed forums, and mods can see who vouched for them. It's not worth it unless the community has something unique to offer (i.e. new blueray rips, non-public deals). Adding crypto to it doesn't add anything of value.
