What’s the point of collecting mirror articles on chain?

It provides a way for us to monetarily support a writer that we enjoy outside of a subscription. Additionally, your on-chain collection can also signal what you’re into, thinking about, etc. I think curation may still play a role moving forward.

Collecting a perma-record of favorite content is fun + having it be a collectible tightens your emotional engagement with it. There’s also a chance that specific content becomes important in the future so having the timestamp you had it early + can transact on it is valuable.

I’ve yet to try mirror, but if it really is just collecting articles on chain, I’d say the biggest point is network effect. Assuming that I (random anon) can see your collection of mirrors anyways. My opinion is that it’s what most newsletter/article platforms are missing.

We take advantage of the knowledge when we share a link, and then collect it, making it ״mine״...

Humans like to collect stuff. Maybe people see it like bookmarking?

Feels like the best of bookmarking (I know I can find this again) and tipping (rewarding great creators and content), rolled into one action (for better and worse). Love the experiment tbh.

Idk. I think a better use case is subscriptions
