Thanks for sharing @afrochicks! Here’s the full article: https://paragraph.xyz/@wanderloots.eth/post-tokens?referrer=wanderloots.eth
I think @dwr.eth that these platforms pushed “art” for a long time, which is quite the loaded word.
Now, they’ve shifted to pushing “content”, which is more in line with social media, but less in line with how we think of art. The switch also causes artists to lose trust in the platform.
As an example, some photos take me 10s/100s of hours, plus the cost of gear, & acquiring the image (travel, planning, etc). Other artists can have the same, or greater invested time & money.
If we say this should be worth pennies, the artist gets disheartened by the system that failed to value their art. Instead, they share to socials but don’t “sell” their art - they’ve produced content, which promotes the underlying asset available for sale (prints, limited editions, 1/1s) that the artist feels aligns with their value.
We need to separate the two, content =/= art 0 reply
