Feeling more “land grab” energy around channels lately

I understand the desire to *own* things but it’s kind of a vibe killer ngl

I just want to shitpost about different topics, not consider the economics of my content every time I cast

Hopefully just teething pains for a new primitive, like with frames

trying to sound smart /doingnumbers

Stands for “bruh we ain’t earning any crypto”

Memes

Tabletop

Mmm yeah I feel you.

That being said, it makes perfect sense for some channels that have a critical mass like /memes and /tabletop .  It’s work to moderate these channels - it’s nice to have a revenue stream which pays moderators.

If your channel is smaller tho, might be better to have a vanilla hypersub

don't think very many channels are ripe for monetization yet. a few are, and a few hosts are thoughtful and smart enough to do it well

would bet we'll see a bunch of misses around decentralized channels, hosts doing too much when the bigger goal should be the same: more, better posts with more, better engagement

glad experimentation is happening and particularly interested in seeing how hypermod plays out, but in my gut I share these concerns

You mean seeing being the curtain takes away the magic? People having sovereignty takes the fun out of it?

Because legacy social media is entirely monetized as well. It's just abstracted away behind algorithms and ads, leaving users with nothing but enshrined reputation instead of actual value.

complaining about having to pay 13 cents to cast in the memes channel, bitch i live in poverty and i threw it at them
