Slowcore HQ

Friends of Slowcore HQ, we'd like to hear thoughts on long-term sustenance of writing *as an art form* in web3 contexts, as distinguished from "content creation." 

We're asking ourselves: Could a slowcore approach sustain a long-term livelihood for the Sanctuary?

See screenshot (WIP) for ideas on the problem space.

The big problem is the same as it is in Web2: discovery. 

Web2 "solved" this via algorithmic content delivery, which resulted in all the problems you list in part II. Creators learned how to influence the algorithm, but were influenced in turn. And the platforms benefitted the most.

Stopping by once more with 1175 $DEGEN for you.

Pretty sure I got a larger tip allowance today because of these comments from you yesterday anyway, so it makes sense for more to return to you.

You're creating real value with your writing. I'm glad there's finally a way to help return some of it to you. 

Makes sense that the larger accounts maybe don't want a notif for every tip. I just wish decisions like this didn't have to penalize the smaller accounts who prefer a slowcore approach.

Thank you so much, Danica! I appreciate the generous tips!

You're right—I don't seem to get notified for tip casts. I suppose it's nice to keep the feed from feeling cluttered with tip responses, but I do want to see when someone tips me lol.
