imagine making a mini-app for a protocol that will eventually pivot and rug all your work when you could just make your own damn badass website that they can never rug

wait, for the sake of steel-manning:

- mini app lives on your server, that you pay for
- is just a website + some meta tags, maybe a specific auth method (could have more than one if you want)
- any payments go on crypto rails (of your choice, as well!)
- do you mean the visitors and community and time spent and ideas and execution, not the actual html + javascript
- if so, you the creator are more likely to rug, than some corporation is likely to smash-and-grab

am I overlooking, or downplaying, some existential rug risk?

to me, the risks are mainly:
- gating / redirecting / blocking of traffic, which seems fairly mild currently tbh
- linkrot-style tech decay, which seems kinda extreme tbh compared to art which should live for much longer

in my scenario, it’s just true indie art to make your own thing (purist)

am aware it doesn’t inspire confidence in a lot of people seeing a site that wasn’t produced by a corporation or whatever
